I want my children to have an equitable education because it is something all kids deserve. Because I know there are schools here in Indy doing a much better job of closing the opportunity gap, I hope that IPS looks at those schools and partners that can get results for kids like mine.
There is not an achievement gap, there’s an opportunity gap because ALL kids can achieve. It comes down to the opportunities provided by our public education system. As a parent, I want IPS leaders to do everything they can to close the opportunity gaps I see. I want them to partner with schools, no matter the type of school, when it means kids like mine will get a fair shot. I want them to grow the schools that are working.
Add your name to this petition if you agree that IPS should look at the data and then grow the models that are proven. Our kids deserve schools that are equitable and get results.
All children are capable of amazing achievement in the classroom. It comes down to the opportunities provided by our public education system.
