SOUTH BEND, Ind. — A charter school authorized by Education One, Trine University’s charter school authorizer, will receive a grant from the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE).
Career Academy Middle School in South Bend, Indiana, was recently named a recipient of a School Improvement Grant from the state. It was one of two South Bend-area schools to receive the grant.
Authorized under section 1003(g) of No Child Left Behind, the grants are awarded on a competitive basis to schools that serve a high percentage of low-income families and have demonstrated a need for additional resources.
The schools could receive up to $3.3 million through the grant. The money will be split into a one-year planning phase, followed by a three-year implementation phase.
Career Academy Middle School began the planning phase after a kickoff meeting with IDOE on Oct. 4. An Educational Transformation Team will begin meeting soon to guide the process of school improvement and transformation, and to oversee implementation of the grant.
As we prepare to celebrate International Women in Engineering Day (INWED) on June 23, it’s a great time to reflect on how far women have come in engineering fields as well as to assess opportunities for improvement.
Three “Birdies, Brews and Barbecues” events remain for 2026 at Trine University’s Club Z.
