A historic day for a historic school! 🩺🏫 Anchored by a $25 million investment from @IU_Health in partnership with The Indianapolis Foundation, IPS announced @CAttucksIPS will undergo a $44 million expansion. This project is a cornerstone of the Indy Health District initiative, aimed at reducing health inequities and improving quality of life on the city’s near north side. The project will include a regulation-size gymnasium, new academic spaces, and a state-of-the-art health academy lab, ensuring that students have every tool necessary for careers in healthcare, but also investing in spaces that support learning, wellness, and long-term success. #IndianapolisPublicSchools #TeamIPS #Indianapolis #HealthCare

IPS is taking a meaningful step to address growing food insecurity among students and families, thanks to a $50,000 investment from the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust to the @IPSFund. The funding will directly support food pantries across the district, prioritizing school-based pantries that are open to the broader community while also strengthening services for IPS-enrolled students and their families. myips.org/blog/district/stre…

BIG energy at @JamesRLowell_51 School 51's @bigten Pep Rally! 🏟️✨ To celebrate the College Football Playoff Peach Bowl, students repped @IUBloomington and @uoregon in style. Through a unique partnership with the Big Ten Conference, each classroom at School 51 is paired with a university, allowing students to learn about their partner school, engage with college student-athletes, and build early awareness of higher education opportunities.

Big Ten spirit just hit IPS! Today, James Russell Lowell School 51 unveiled a brand-new outdoor basketball and pickleball court as part of an exciting yearlong partnership between @IPSSchools and the @bigten—powered in a big way by the @IPSFund. 💙 Every IPS classroom will rep a Big Ten team—complete with team t-shirts, student-athlete visits, and activities that make learning, sports, and higher education come alive. This isn’t just about games—it’s about mentorship, school pride, better attendance, and proving college dreams are within reach #TeamIPS #B1GInTheClassroom #IPSExcellence #CollegeBound #IPSFoundation #IPSPartnerPower
