Mrs. Long's year 4οΈβ£8οΈβ£ in education π Proving What's Possible | James Whitcomb Riley School 43 | Dr. Aleesia Johnson



Finishing up a wonderful week in IPS. Anna Brochhausen 88 has built an inclusive environment for ALL of their students AND I got to witness STEM in action! Also got a chance to see the first community meeting at CFI 84 (Center for Inquiry) led by some amazing students Dr. Aleesia Johnson



We had a blast celebrating James Whitcomb Riley School 43 scholars and their achievements from the 23-24 SY at our first B.A.G awards! We celebrated perfect attendance, attendance goals met, ILEARN and IREAD success, and impeccable behavior! We celebrated 150+ scholars!! π #JoyandExcellence Go π!




Principal Billups thought about, and almost touched, the Arlington Middle School chickens π This yr our STEM students will be building a coop! π π


The work our partners from Skinny Dog Graphics has done looks so amazing! Our schools have gotten a facelift! Look how great the front doors and main office desk look James A. Garfield School 31!





First full week of the school year at Northwest Middle School was filled with fall sports tryouts, Camptown team building activities, new math curriculum internalization and walkthroughs & student created PBIS poster displays!


This year #RebuildingStronger has allowed all of our IPS students in 6-8th gr to get a middle school experience. H. W. Longfellow Middle School is now an #InternationalBaccalaureate school and will serve Ss in 6th gr too. It was great to see Ss learning routines, and their teachers, wk1.


When you walk into a room with a master teacher, you immediately know. Ms. Rhodes James A. Garfield School 31 is kind, has immediately built relationships with her students and amongst them, and can run a master class in routines and procedures.




What a morning! I attended the Crispus Attucks High School Alumni Jazz Brunch & met the oldest known alumnus, 103-year-old Mrs. Pryor-McGuire. An absolute honor to meet & talk w/her. She led the whole room in the School Song. Just doesnβt get any better than that! #TigerPride #IPSProud ππ

Thrilled to highlight how IPS is #RebuildingStronger! #TeamIPS has expanded access to our REACH program at T.C. Howe Middle School , offering specialized ABA support for students on the autism spectrum. Dr. Aleesia Johnson Lela Simmons
