Indian Mountain private School

Indian Mountain School is a coeducational boarding and day school with two campuses in Lakeville, Connecticut, serving children from pre-kindergarten to grade nine. The school is divided into two campuses: the lower campus is for primary school students (pre-k to fourth grade), while the upper campus is for students in grades 5–9. However, boarding is only provided to students in years 6 through 9. Indian Mountain School is sometimes shortened as IMS. Francis Behn Riggs bought the land and structures that now make up the Upper Campus in 1916.  Riggs founded the Riggs School, an agricultural high school for males, after attending Groton and Harvard. Indian Mountain School took on its current name in 1922, when it became a boarding school designed to prepare boys for secondary school entrance exams. Classes and dormitory space were housed in a large structure adjacent to and south of the current tennis courts, while Hadden House operated as a gymnasium and faculty residence.
