Welcome to EducateIndiana! I am happy to announce an exciting project with the Indiana Principals Association to spotlight some of the positive things happening in our schools today. As many of you know, I have a strong interest in education. In fact, my first elected position was that of school board member for Indianapolis Public Schools. During my years as Mayor of Indianapolis, and throughout my time in the Senate, I have worked with many of you to help improve our education system. In recent years -- particularly since the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act -- we all have spent time pointing to the difficulties that some of our schools are facing. This is necessary as we continuously seek to improve achievement. However, I also feel strongly that we must take time to share some of the positive stories. This is where I have asked for assistance from the Indiana Principals Association. I am hopeful that principals and superintendents
from across the state will assist me in spotlighting
an academic program, an outstanding teacher, an outstanding
student, a building or any and all of the above. Each
month we will highlight the activities of a specific
Indiana Principals Association District, starting with
District 7.
