PREPARING STUDENTS

FOR THEIR NEXT STEPS IN LIFE

The Indian Hill School District is doing that, right now, in partnership with the Indian Hill Foundation. Welcome to Indian Hill Experienceships, a place where education and industry converge
to provide unparalleled opportunities for our future global leaders to sharpen career skills and goals while enrolled at Indian Hill High School.

How can you make Indian Hill High School even better than it already is? That is the question students are challenged with each year. Following numerous competitive rounds of elimination, the top
presenters share their ideas in a ﬁnal round to a panel of professionals at a shot for getting projects funded through a $10,000 grant supported by the
Indian Hill Foundation.

ARTS

Indian Hill High School celebrated students who are planning for futures in the arts and military during the third-annual Arts and Military Signing Ceremony last May.

ATHLETICS

Thirty-nine Choir and 40 Orchestra students from IHHS participated in remarkable performance opportunities during their spring breaks. With almost 10 performances across Hawaii and Europe as well as immersing themselves in the culture of their locations, these students had musical experiences that will last a lifetime!

Indian Hill High School was selected as the only school in Ohio and one of only 51 schools selected from some 300 nationally to debut Disney’s Frozen on the school theatre stage.
