Indian Springs Residential Life
Our Alabama private high school boarding program gathers students from around the world and teaches them how to grow as individuals within a vibrant, diverse, respectful community. Since we opened in 1952, boarding has enriched our school community by enabling students to immerse themselves in their educational lives, build camaraderie through shared experience, and discover for themselves the meaning of responsibility.
Our dynamic Residential Life program gives a third of our student body a chance to live on our beautiful 350-acre campus and experience the benefits of Learning through Living beyond the traditional school day. From pizza parties to mat ball and nature hikes to concerts, boarders enjoy an array of fun nighttime and weekend activities and have access to readily available support from our dedicated faculty members, more than half of whom live on campus.
The relationships formed and the experiences shared in Hess and Goodrich Halls are often the foundation of a student’s fondest memories of Indian Springs.

Respect
Boarding students are a family, and the dorms are their home. Our Residential Life program is centered on respect for one another and the spaces we share. Students work together to solve problems while dorm faculty are available to provide guidance and advice. -
Culture
Boarding students get to know peers from diverse backgrounds and be exposed to new ideas and cultures. Weekend activities allow them to explore Birmingham, a city known for its complex history, world-class cultural institutions, and renowned restaurant scene. -
Involvement
Boarding students play an active role in governing the day-to-day life of the dorms and planning social opportunities. Upper-level students can pursue formal leadership positions such as Commissioners of Boarding, Senior Scholars, and Dorm Proctors.
