My experience with Indian Prairie 204 has been very positive. I think that I am well prepared for college and have enjoyed my time with the district. Hearing about others' experiences in other districts helped me to realize how lucky I am because Indian Prairie is one of the best districts in the country. I think that the food served could be a lot better when kids were slowly returning after COVID and lunches were free the quality of the food was not the best, but now that we have gone back to paying for lunch the quality got better and the options expanded but I know that the food could be a lot better and higher quality. I think that each of the schools does a good job of letting the parents get involved in their child's school and helping students get involved through sports, clubs, and activities. Almost all students at the high school are involved in an after school activity in some way.

Indian Prairie School District 204 is more than just a school district. The wide variety of resources provided by schools in the district have changed my life. I've not only learned a lot from the amazing teachers, but I also had fun. School isn't only supposed to be about working hard and getting good grades. This school district puts students' learning over grades. My teachers always prioritize my learning over my grades. What matters isn't that I'm getting good grades, but I'm learning. The teachers also push me harder to get to become my best person. My science teacher always emphasizes the quality of the work, "Is it done, or is it done well?" Learning in IPSD 204 schools has been a blessing to me. If something occurs and you need to talk to someone about it; the school counselors will never push you away. These schools have given me knowledge, but even past that, these schools have taught me character. They showed me who I am, and everyone is there to support.
