Congratulations, Taiyanna Jackson!

Congratulations, Taiyanna Jackson!! 

On your collegiate accomplishments and announcements in the 2024 NCAA Tournament! Jackson has always had a knack shot blocking, but since arriving in Lawrence, she’s been challenged with playing against opponents that are bigger, and more experienced at the DI level, then she was coming in. Jackson is fearless when she matches up against opponents.

School Performance Report

The Annual Performance Report (APR) is a required publication that includes academic and performance data for all Indiana school corporations

The report cards replace the state’s previous accountability system in which the state assigned A through F grades to measure a school’s quality. School grades have been effectively suspended since 2018 when Indiana shifted from ISTEP to a new state standardized test and later grappled with the COVID-19 pandemic.
