(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - We have three children who went to Indian Ridge Elementary. Our principal Dee Bench is a wonderful, caring and well respected leader. The staff at Indian Ridge were more than just their teachers, they were amazing!! We have a child with an IEP and with the help of such a wonderful, caring and loving staff we were able to help him succeed on a daily basis.
It saddened us to have to leave such a great school and wonderful neighborhood.
