Enriching P-12 Education

Our mission at the Office of School Partnerships is to prepare students for 21st-century careers and connect Indiana University with Hoosier educators and policy makers to provide resources that support learning.

To activate IU 2030, specifically IU’s commitments to P-12 education in our service to the state, the following five strategies were developed with input from over 100 faculty and staff and used to guide the work of the IU campuses:

  1. Strengthening Communities Through P-12 Engagement
  2. Advancing Educational Access, Inclusivity, and Equity
  3. Fostering Resilience and Success in the Educator
  4. Pipeline Elevating and Communicating IU’s Commitment to P-12 Education
  5. Strengthening Institution-Wide Coordination

These strategies offer a framework for cultivating more intentional, reciprocal, and far-reaching partnerships that enhance learning experiences and uplift our students, schools, and communities.

Indiana University’s partnership with P-12 education is more than just a commitment; it’s a cornerstone of our strategic plan. By collaborating with educators and policymakers, we’re not only strengthening our state’s educational foundation but also fulfilling our role as a vital economic and cultural asset.
