Curious about our mission and vision? Here's a primer into what we're doing and what we'll be covering. https://t.co/3EDb5QiBlj

"The dispute in Romeo reflects a broader fight ensuing over what belongs in America’s classrooms." https://t.co/aZBPW5bO6X

An interesting perspective on what's driving enrollment trends in a county where growth remains rapid. https://t.co/1QNNz5bmhb

There's a new, national tax credit school choice program. It's complicated. "An obvious concern is that SGOs’ marketing efforts will amount to time and resources that detract from the main purpose of the scholarship program and drive up overhead costs." https://t.co/J2bAHshBm7

"Indiana, New Jersey, and Tennessee are among the states with some of the lowest chronic absenteeism rates." https://t.co/eAZLcvzFxU

Chris Bultman was just appointed to fill an open IPS board seat. He's also running to fill the seat for a full term this November. But he's no longer unopposed in his race. https://t.co/Ryn19RCkqO

"On Wednesday, the IPS school board interviewed Chris Bultman and Lindsey Cornett to fill the District 4 vacancy ahead of a Thursday vote." https://t.co/V1srxwZVAM

Perhaps K-12's increasing push for students to pursue things besides college after high school comes at students' own peril? "The vast majority of non-college roles, including blue collar trades, earn below-average wages." https://t.co/U3PybNOE8m

Addressing literacy gaps and chronic absenteeism "could be scuttled by an alarming increase in the number of young children who lack access to healthcare." https://t.co/s0DhaPacdu

14 candidates, 5 open seats. Here's who seeks to occupy the IPS board come this November's election. https://t.co/gC5Xcv76oZ

Willing to be proven wrong but this seems like a good thing for education in Indiana. https://t.co/lPU7ZK7Xml

Been digesting this interesting piece from @educationweek. Closing schools may help stabilize a district's finances. But it's not a given. https://t.co/DIE2Tdmnby

[Full Circle Indy @FullCircleK12]

"The philanthropic VITAL Foundation awarded roughly $1.3 million in its first round of grants for teacher bonuses at high-needs schools that could range from $1,000 to $10,000." https://t.co/uPeBRI73j2

Hill and Rainey: Most school district leaders know their finances are in serious trouble. Most aren’t saying so publicly. That is part of the problem. https://t.co/TtPDNt8pCs

[Full Circle Indy @FullCircleK12]

Simply renewing the existing IPS operating referendum at its current rate may not avoid financial disaster for the district. We look at the referendum amount they say is needed to create financial stability. https://t.co/2wXgQ0OjBJ

[Full Circle Indy @FullCircleK12]

The Indianapolis Public Education Corporation may advance a referendum for this November's ballot. Here's how much funding IPS says they need to avoid disaster. https://t.co/2wXgQ0OjBJ

This is sitting with me in a very strange way. "Nearly 84% of Detroit district high schoolers were paid for coming to school this year, with far more students in neighborhood schools receiving the payout." https://t.co/EKtdolVqjg

[Full Circle Indy @FullCircleK12]

There's a lot of different referendum options on the table to support IPS and charter schools. This is a helpful snapshot of range of realistic asks. https://t.co/Eg7HNxZ0Ay

[Full Circle Indy @FullCircleK12]

Color me skeptical of schools like this. "Letting students decide how they learn is almost as important a goal of Mayfield High School near Cleveland as learning itself." https://t.co/Z0ZWklwQQY
