Students from across the street and around the world make an ideal boarding community because all share something: personal experiences. What makes Indian Springs special is its diversity.

It brings together individuals and helps them create a community. Boarding builds bridges between people and cultures, creating opportunities for new styles of learning, understanding, and growth. At Indian Springs, boarding is about being here, being with people who care and being one of us. Whether in the common rooms of their dorms or on the sandy beach by the lake, students can appreciate what it is to live and learn in a truly unique environment. And at Indian Springs, close to one hundred students can share in late-night pizza parties, study groups, weekend walks, or trips to the museum. Sharing meals with your classmates, your friends, and your teachers creates that feeling of sitting with your family around the table.

Living at Springs

Springs’ boarding program brings together students from around the world and teaches them how to grow as individuals within a vibrant, diverse, respectful community.

Since Indian Springs opened in 1952, boarding has enriched our school community by enabling students to immerse themselves in their educational lives, build camaraderie through common experience, and discover for themselves the meaning of responsibility.

Our dynamic Residential Life program gives a third of our student body the chance to live on our beautiful, 350-acre campus and to experience the benefits of Learning through Living beyond the traditional school day. From pizza parties to mat ball, nature hikes to concerts, boarders get to 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.

Weekends

Weekends at Indian Springs are a time to relax, study, hang out with friends, or participate in one of the many activities offered by our Residential Life team.

Activities each weekend are designed to provide entertainment, learning opportunities, and the ability to get items a student may need. There are often shopping trips, movies, and restaurant excursions. Trips to museums, live musical performances, dramatic productions, and sporting events also occur regularly. Several trips are scheduled around long weekends each season of the school year. In the past few years these have included day trips to Atlanta, overnight backpacking or camping adventures, and an overnight trip to Savannah.

Often students’ favorite activities are held right on campus—movie parties in the John Badham Theater, dances at the Hut, canoeing on the lake, or cookouts with faculty and friends.

Residential Life

Boarding builds bridges between people and cultures, creating unique opportunities for learning, understanding, and growth.

At Indian Springs boarding is about being here, being responsible for yourself, and being with people who care. Living in one of our dorms is an experience that often changes the lives of young people. Residential students have the option of either a traditional room with a single roommate, or suites with three or four single bedrooms that attach to a shared living room and bathroom.
