North Side Elementary Home

Randolph Eastern was fortunate enough to welcome Indiana's Secretary of Education, Dr. Katie Jenner and Director of Teaching and Learning, Dr. Polk-Meek in our facilities today. The purpose of their visit was to celebrate and learn more about the amazing work being done in our classrooms everyday.

The team from the Indiana Department of Education started the day with Student Ambassadors from North Side Elementary and ended their visit with our Jr/Sr High NEXTGEN Student-Leadership team. Our students and staffulty did an amazing job representing RESC!

Great job and congrats to all involved!

Today RESC is excited to announce that the Indiana Department of Education Office of School Support & Transformation selected us as one of the eight schools from 40 applicants to be in the 1st Cohort of the Next Generation School Improvement Grant (NextGen SIG). This grant is worth $3.3 Million over a four-year period. Year one will be used for planning to transform student learning, with years 2-4 used for implementation. This competitive NextGen SIG required applicants to identify an intervention priority upon which to focus their improvement efforts and an intervention model designed to secure the necessary conditions to transform educational opportunities. Additionally, given that school transformation requires specialized expertise, applicants were encouraged to identify an expert partner to provide strategic guidance and expert support in the planning and implementation phase. RESC will use the grant funds to transform Student Pathways and Postsecondary credentials available to our Jr/Sr High School students.

I really enjoyed honoring the North Side teachers after school today. They are the day to day heroes in the classroom and deserve all the credit for the STEM Certification!

The Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) today announced 15 schools are newly-certified as leaders in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education.
