Independence Academy: what do users think?
Nikkie Byrd: I would give it 0 starts. But that wasn't an option the teachers are abusive both physical and emotional. They treat their students like inmates and if your child is ever there watch how those treach treat them. This place is no place for any child
Stephanie Taylor: In 2003, I took GED preparation classes from January to May and the staff were amazing! I received my GED in July, passing on the first try.
Gamer_Sick: Worst school in the district. ISD in general is just horrible. Don't ever send your kids here even if you didnt have the choice.
Christina Harris: This school is an amazing place to learn and get educated and the teachers are very helpful and they take the time to teach you and give you space to learn the teachers also take time to get to know you and teach students on a level that everyone understands. and the education level accommodates everybody's specialized learning level. P.S I'm a student lol
Harris06 02: My child had posted her opinion on this school and was later told to remove it and post something more positive. Seems like bullying to me. They can restrain and harm your children and not be held accountable. Understanding that my child had behavioral problems but I was under the understanding that this is why this school was an option. Because it was suppose to be a safe environment to learn and thrive. What a hoax this turned out to be.Signed... a concerned parent!
Snake Griffin: This place gave me another chance at a brighter future. And it helped me graduate on time. The teachers were more than accommodating and they were more than willing to do one on one. The class sizes were about 10 people sometimes smaller. I'd highly recommend this school. Thank you Independence Academy for giving hope in my life once more.

Truman High School: what do users think?
Jim Palmer: I believe the school district has overreacted to what was really a harmless prank by a silly senior. Three days suspended is certainly fair but, come on, denying this young fellow the ability to graduate with his class is just plain mean.
Diana Straeb: A good student at Truman high school is suspended and barred from graduation because of a funny and harmless senior prank. What on earth is wrong with this school administration ?
Tidewater Wholesale: I can't believe this school would keep a young man from his graduation for a harmless prank, the administration clearly isn't very intelligent , it caused zero damage to the school and its students , it was barely funny at that , but what this school did was just wrong.
Snake Griffin: Went here for a few years felt like I was at prison rather than school. Personally they need to make a few changes to the staff. Some of these "Teachers" really don't know how to help others without getting angry. Sure I wasn't the greatest student. But you should never treat anyone like they're a convict. The reason this place is getting 2 stars is because of the few teachers that try. I will say this if your into butt kissing then look no further because this is the place for you. If your like me and don't butt kiss then I'd advise you to try and get into Independence Academy.
quavo yrnn: F**K TRUMAN HIGH SCHOOL!!
Misty Wyrick: Truman is a huge disappointment.. I am very sad from the lack of heart they have for their students.. My son is graduating and they are taking a ONCE IN A LIFE TIME thing away from him. He may not be a star student to them but he is to me and to take something like walking across that stage away from him is ridiculous and breaks my heart.. He worked hard for 13 years and did it.. he graduated and just because he didnt go to the practice he does not get to participate with the rest of his class.. HEART BREAKING.. i would NOT recommend this school to any parent
Kirsten Duncan: I was a student here for some of my sophomore year and most of the staff was very disrespectful to the students I did not feel safe here at all so second semester since they refused to transfer me to another school within the district I was taken out of school to do online. I would never recommend moving to this neighborhood because of the staff.
Victor Tran: Its okay.
Crystal Rodrguez: Its a Great School with super friendly kids and staff. There Wrestling team is Awesome as well as there coach. It changed my son's life. My daughter is looking forward to starting next year.
D H: Worst school ever mr loewe is a fake principal he will have cops secretly break in your car
The GG: I hate this school
Antonio johnson: What kind of name is logan
Austin Perryman: I transferred from a private school to Truman my junior year. By far, Truman has superior academics. There are students who use drugs, but you'll find that in just about any school. One of the things I appreciated about Truman were the teachers. They wanted you to learn, and everyone pushed you to do your best. Socially, the students are really relaxed and laid back. They are welcoming to new kids, like me. Ultimately, it was a great experience. There's lots of school spirit and lots of clubs. You'll always find something fun to do at Truman. Go Patriots!

Fort Osage High School: what do users think?
Zach Batzold: Just amazing. I loved every year I went here. WE ARE FORT!!!
Laya Down: Great place for your kids. Independence schools were always trying to get me to take my son off medications. My son has autism and fort Osage have been great to him. They know his behaviors are just part of his brain disease
Matt Mansell: Very happy with the majority of the staff here. People really can make a difference. Many schools struggle with their budget but yet Fort Osage always seems to make it work.
Luafata Faamoe: I loved this high school! The motto, "Fort Osage where we do things a little bit better than everybody else", really motivated me to be the best that I could be. Really good sporting programs, and really good academic program as well. Wide variety of extra curricular activities to keep students busy and involved.
Austin Todd: Very bad
Andrea Ragan: So very proud to say that My brother, my husbands, and my children went to Fort O. If you want somewhere where the staff, teachers, the transportation department, and even the custodians and caffiteria personal love and respect and want to help every student, then please bring your children here. I can't think b of a better place for them to get a good education then at Fort O
Cassidy’s Life: love my boys in black and red
Shawn Brundage: Forts the best not a school around that is better

Bingham Middle School: what do users think?
I Am Remnant: So glad my child will not be attending this school next year. From the things I'm hearing from my child some of the employees might be a bit racist. The schools liaison acts like a stalker. Referred us to the courts because my daughter has missed some days. My child told me that some others kids that don't come to school hardly ever and they are Caucasian. But if she misses days from being sick or doctors appts it's a problem! Police shows up etc. My daughter has bad knees. And no one would listen to her until I took her to the hospital and she has a syndrome that affects her knees. She's still getting F's in gym. And then they claim she missed a whole month of school, how is that?! If that was true. How is it that it took the whole school year just about to report it. Smh. And also instead of the schools liaison calling me about absences that's occurring because of her appts because she sees an occupational therapist every week she calls my housing manager which stated if my daughter doesn't attend school then we can get kicked out. Good job Bingham! GOD bless as well! Prayer changes a lot trust me!
Maurice Godfrey: This was my old middle school now i would love to see the New Bingham Middle School .

Independence School District: what do users think?
Gamer_Sick: ISD is very slow and inefficient. I just graduated here, walked on stage 2 weeks ago and I still haven't received any word on my diploma. When I was coming back here for the 2nd time it took them almost 3 months to get me in here, making me miss the entirety of 2nd quarter. Some teachers here though are pretty top tier. So I will give them that.
Melissa Hatfield: Independence school district doesn't help children who have learning disabilities. They neglected my child's need for years, denying her testing and saying she didn't need the help when clearly she did. With no guidance I finally figured out how to go about getting her help, this year she was diagnosed and now they say, they will forward her evaluation on to the school district but can't start anything over the summer. Such a joke of school district and the amount of bullying that goes on in the schools is disturbing.
Jeremiah Smith: Really good school district
Julie Aldrich: Always friendly and helpful staff!!
Yaneth Sagaatume: 👍👍
Jamie Dennis: I love this district. They always got something going on.❤
Charles Kiper: I clearly do not understand. How does a school district that prides itself on character traits. Hire so many discriminating bullies? My daughter who has O.I. only wants to cheer for Truman. Yet the cheer coach Ms Parrish has shunned her. The Athletic director Mr Bieser has also told lies and hid behind his desk. But, what really takes the cake is Ms. Amy Chapelle. The 504 coordinator. She stated in a 504 meeting today. " I don't care what you say or what her doctor says. she is not cheering for basketball." It was the rudest thing I have ever heard. I was beside myself. Here the 504 coordinator for the school district is discriminating. Saying these things in front of my daughter. I was so upset. All I could do was leave. Is the world so bad that the lady whom suppose to be helping my daughter openly say " I can discriminate any time I want". Well I dont believe what this woman said can be the way it is . She needs to be fired as do the cheer coach and activities director Mr. Bieser. You have all discriminated against Lacy for the last time. I will contact all the necessary gov. Agency's, lawyer, advocacy groups as well as news stations. These children have rights. The legal way will prove your wrong. Your not fit for your position.
Bj Walker: Student bathrooms are not clean and barely any toilet paper in them. They should be sanitized especially since we are in a pandemic and they have order all kids back in school. What’s the use of a mask if bathrooms are unclean?
Linda Matthews: Just had to take a friend. She got in and out really quick.
linda hufft: I was really impressed with the professionalism , friendliness, and overall experience. So happy I'm joining the substitute teaching in Independance Mo School system.
Jessie Davis: I enrolled my kids over a month ago. I have left numerous messages, and called the school direstly. They sent emails and no one returns my calls. School started a month ago and they still are not enrolled. Just wow i feel like they care about their education enough to ignore us.
Jessica Mencia: Muy bueno
Kendra Henderson: Easy peasy i was in and out and everyone was super helpful
Janice Seek: Just fine
Maria Parton: Picked up chrome books for summer school today. The guys were professional and quick with what we had to do.
infinty_galatic dragon: Ok so i used to be a student here it is so bad do not enroll ur kids in school there ok 1st of all i got bullied all the time 2nd of all the teachers dont care they say they care but they dont and they do nothing 3rd of all check out iola ks the lincoln colts they are nice were i am now my parents moved bc of these ppl like if agree
StarFighters76: i miss when this was Regional Hospital.
Meridith Moore: Great district to work for. I was classified support staff in Deaf Education. Lots of resources and support for students and staff! Competitive pay and benefits too.
MarLa S.: Horrible district. They will lie and when you point out their lies, they lie even more, then they work hard to cover up their lies and make themselves out to be victims. It is a constant in this district of pure evil. If you are looking for a school district that is fair, trustworthy, genuine, values education, with no racial bias, organized, and has integrity, you will need to look elsewhere. Sorry, but this district has none of the above. For the sake of your children, choose Blue Springs, Lee's Summit, Kansas (Overland Park, Olathe, etc.) or private school. Good luck!
Megan Zirkle: We love Korte!
karen messer: well I gave them 1 star only because it makes you choose at least one star other wise I would of gave -10 because independence school district has went down hill they have police officers in the schools but they do nothing but sit in there office. They don't take care of the bullies they allow them to continue to bullying and threaten the good kids.

Clifford H. Nowlin Middle School: what do users think?
chloe williams: Nowlin is the worst school in independence I would advice you not to let your children go to this school.They take your hoodies from you and you have to wait till the end of the day to get it and sit in a freezing cold room all day.There are also cockroaches everywhere it’s nasty. The school food is nasty, they don’t let you go to the bathroom most days.the students are disrespectful and bully people. Too many fights at the school. Inappropriate language and behavior. The teachers and staff are rude and are not fair to others they favor and are rude to most kids. Mrs. j Miller is a horrible teacher. DONT let your CHILD GO HERE!!!!!!!!!!!
karen messer: TO ALL THE PARENTS OF CHILDREN THAT ATTEND NOWLIN MIDDLE SCHOOL. THE STAFF DOES NOT CARE WHAT GOES ON IN THE SCHOOL THEY PICK AND CHOOSE WHO THEY LIKE. I HAVE SEVERAL TEXT MESSAGES FROM OTHER GIRLS THAT HAD SENT TO HER FRIENDS AND THEY FORWARDED THEM TO MY DAUGHTER. I AM GOING TO TAKE PICTURES OF THE TEXT AND POST THEM SOME OF THEM ARE VERY MEAN. PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR CHILDREN THE OFFICE STAFF DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR KIDS. THEY SURE PUT ON A GOOD FRONT.
Minney Family: The staff is horrible in regards to bullying. I withdrew my daughter out of Nowlin at the beginning of last week and the counselor just called today. She left a message stating she couldn't understand what my message said but I left more than 1 message. I didn't bother calling back as that message was left over a week ago. Most of my daughters teachers were great though. She had 1 teacher that I won't name that wouldn't even let her leave the class to use the restroom which made me angry as all her other teachers complimented her behavior. My daughter will not go back to Nowlin, she will be homeschooled from now on. I hope the staff learns to handle bullying better than they do now and to return calls in a timely manner. It's ridiculous that I didn't get a call back until after I withdrew her. Good luck to any parents that have students in this school or will be in this school for 6th grade.
e: I would say that my experience here has not been great. I recently witnessed some safety issues that need to be fixed. This school does not handle bullying very well. The teachers are OK, but overall could be better.
Jackie Clifton: Some of the staff is helpful some of them are one track minded once they have their mind made up about someone that's the only way they expect that person to be they don't believe in second chances not all of them just some of them
Chablie Moomoo: In my opinion this school has teachers that play fights with the students I have also witnessed a teacher put a student in a head lock in a playful manner.but I just don't like this school
Betty Weaver: Have not been happy with staff or bullying at school. My grandson is afraid to go to school since he started here
Spiderman: I did not like my experience at this school. There were MANY rumors of teachers and my homeroom teacher kicked my violin case. I dislike this teacher very much. I hate this person with a deep and burning passion of pure hatred.
sonia Calderon: It lame is real does not let you do much and I hate some classes
drew Martin: My daughter has refused to go to school after 2 years and 3 months of attending she just now says something. she's been telling me she doesnt wanna go this week! Her friends are being bullied so she hates it and they never do anything. She only likes a few teachers and she still will not go to class. She keeps saying to send her to a new school!
Eva Summers: Ms.Williams is the best teacher ever out there kids that have her class in seventh grade learn really well and no one can even think about being mean to her she is the sweetest most funniest person the is
makeupisntmystrongsuit: I had the crappiest experience here. Higher staff was terrible. Lovely teachers but other staff makes this place unbarable. Literally just moved only to get away from this place.
Annia Harris: My kids go there, they could be a little better with bullying. One of my children excels in this place and loves going there. There are tons of safety procedures which I like.
Pixie Cosmos: Very nice school has its faults but I like the classes. Especially the special classes like medical detectives and flight and space
Natasha Jensen: The administration office at the school is a joke , they are rude , clueless and incompetent of doing their jobs . I've dealt with office on three different occasions hoping for a different result every time but no luck. They don't seem to care . I'm hoping the teachers are better .
Billy Steward: E Miller
Colby Rivera: Ms simmons is the best
