Hello from Amelia at Chalkbeat Indiana!
It’s been a busy week of news for Indianapolis. Just after the Indianapolis Public Education Corporation named its new executive director, the Mind Trust also announced an IPEC board member to its C-suite.
The hire further strengthens ties between the charter sector — the Mind Trust helped found many charters in Indianapolis — and IPEC, a powerful new oversight board.
That leads your inbox today.
As always, reach the bureau with tips and story ideas at [email protected].
Local education coverage is disappearing. Chalkbeat helps families and educators understand what’s changing. We can’t do it without you.
