Operators said the popularity and heavy use of the Indiana Learns program led to its early end. They hope it will return next year.

Indiana University Indianapolis announced this week it will bring the Groups Scholars Program to its campus next year. The program provides academic, financial and social support to first-generation and underrepresented college students to help them obtain a bachelor’s degree.

Despite some lingering concerns, lawmakers voted to advance a work-based learning bill Tuesday that gives students more options to use higher education grants.

Gov. Eric Holcomb and top Republican lawmakers announced the latest budget proposal Tuesday, which includes the state's biggest investment in K-12 education -- nearly $2 billion in state funding for schools over the next two years.

Indiana Senate Republicans unveiled their $36 billion two-year state budget proposal Thursday making a number of changes to the Houses K-12 funding plan and focusing heavily on one-time spending.

The proposed budget would increase funding for "high value" classes like welding and industrial automation while eliminating funding from almost two dozen "less than moderate value" classes like culinary arts, cosmetology, fashion and more.

Indiana House Republicans want to spend at least $65 million less on traditional K-12 schools in their state budget plan than Gov. Eric Holcomb proposed.

Gov. Eric Holcomb's state budget proposal is receiving mixed reviews from education groups.

Indiana lawmakers are fast-tracking legislation to provide schools full funding for students learning remotely because of COVID-19.

Many school leaders feared the state's education budget approved by lawmakers in 2019 would be cut back in light of revenue shortfalls spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic.
