“Great schools are the backbone of strong communities,” said Glenda Ritz, Indiana’s Superintendent of Public Instruction.  “Through the Promising Practices program, the Indiana Department of Education honors Indiana’s bicentennial by highlighting high-quality educational programs and wrap-around services.  That is why I am honored to recognize more than 200 Promising Practices today that are positively impacting our schools and our state.”
