"From reading, to math, to maximizing the high school experience and beyond, Indiana educators are leading with bold, innovative strategies that drive student learning forward," said Dr. Katie Jenner, Indiana Secretary of Education. "As a state, our synergy and alignment has never been stronger, and what unites us all is a constant focus on doing what is best for students. Tomorrow, we will get back to work, but tonight is our moment to celebrate the movement happening across Indiana and to honor the exceptional educators who have made it all possible."
