Curriculum

Indian Springs Curriculum

Our curriculum provides a rigorous academic experience and the freedom to explore your passions.

Our students have the opportunity to individualize their educational experience. We offer 120+ courses, including 18 AP classes, dozens of electives, and numerous independent study options that allow juniors and seniors to work one-on-one with faculty members. Twenty-five fine arts electives anchor a remarkable arts program that offers visual arts, drama, and music opportunities and gives students a chance to study with world-renowned talent.
 
In 2015, we became one of the first schools in Alabama to have classrooms equipped with Clear Touch Interactive Learning Panels to support global connectivity. We also participate in the Malone Family Foundation’s prestigious Malone Scholars Program and are the only school in Alabama—and one of only eight schools in the Southeast—to offer virtual courses through the Malone Schools Online Network.

Our top Alabama boarding school’s graduation requirements include four English credits, three history credits, three math credits (at least through algebra II & trigonometry), three science credits (including biology, chemistry, and physics), three PE credits (including wellness & fitness), one art credit (including either art or music history), and three credits in modern and classical languages (must be in the same language).
