State Superintendent of Public Instruction

Welcome to the Indiana Department of Education!

We are dedicated to providing the highest quality of support to Indiana’s schools, students, teachers and parents. The administration will be working with educators, parents, policy makers, business leaders and community leaders to create a system of education that will offer the resources and opportunities necessary for our students to compete and excel in the 21st Century.

Over the next couple of months, our team will begin transforming the Department’s website into a portal for educators, parents, students and the community to easily access information about the IDOE, academic issues, performance data, and programs and initiatives. We will also maintain communication via the IDOE’s Facebook page and through your local media outlets.

We look forward to imagining the possibilities and, together, making them happen.

Respectfully,


Glenda Ritz

Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction
