IND is an all girls catholic highschool attended by your grandmother, mother, aunts, cousins, and sisters. No, it's not surrounded by rolling hills and beautiful trees, but within the first week of receiving your license, you've learned to parallel park in spaces just inches larger than your car. You regularly drive to the Inner Harbor for lunch and proudly wear your uniform in public.
You know that Hildie will give you a free lunch, cut you a break in detention, and give you change if you need it. You appreciate the fact that your lunch table is probably more diverse than the entire student body at other schools. You get less sleep during Spirit Week than you do during exam week and understand that no true INDian will ever wear red unless it's her class color.
Freshmen enter wearing high socks, long skirts, nametags, and tucked-in shirts; they never go down the "up only" stairs. By Senior year, your skirt has become 8 inches shorter, your name-tag has been "on order" (for the past three years), you've slept in your uniform more than once, and you're lucky to even find socks in the morning. You've also never heard of wearing make-up, shaving your legs, or brushing your hair during the week. By the time you graduate, you have fallen down the slate stairs at least once and when others fall, it's more acceptable to point and laugh than offer help.
With 100 days left, you hang your winter skirt from the slate stairs. Despite four years of complaining, you cry when you hear the final blessing on your last day; you vow to visit as an alum at the first chance you get. When you process from the Cathedral on graduation wearing matching long white gowns carrying a dozen red roses, you know you are not only leaving your class, but your family. You love your school and others will never understand.

IND is an all-girls school in baltimore, maryland. It is known to be "ghetto" just because of where it's located. Inside, it is totally the opposite.(you wouldnt know until you've been inside) IND has the most awesome spirit weeks! ;) we've got stuff to be proud of like the Varsity&JV basketball team (who don't go around getting pregnant unlike other schools out there...)Other sports that IND rock at are soccer, lacrosse, cheerleading, track, and MANY more.
There are many rumors about the school, but the people that actually make up those rumors are just jealous because they know IND is way better and they've got nothing better to do.
And yes, IND is A REAL PRIVATE SCHOOL. Obviously, whoever said that does not know IND at all. Education is the most important part of IND. And 99% of the girls get into great colleges all around the U.S. and they use their education from IND to their benefit.
All around, IND is a great high school that people should get to know before believing the rumors. (or making up any)
