The report, prepared by Public Impact for The Mind Trust, outlines a comprehensive plan for transforming Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS) by shrinking and redefining the role of the central office, and redirecting responsibility and tens of millions of dollars in funding for services from the central office to schools. The plan also describes how IPS can create the conditions needed to support and grow successful schools, including talent development, new school incubation, universal Pre-K, and extensive autonomy at the school level over curriculum, staffing, budget, and other key decisions. The report concludes that mayoral accountability offers the best option for IPS to realize the vision set out in this bold plan.
