Indianapolis Public Schools launched its Office of Communications and Engagement several months ago. Carter Barrett, from WFYI’s education desk, caught up with its leader Kristian Stricklen to find out how the district will use this office to connect with hard to reach families.

Carter Barrett was a reporter for Side Effects Public Media, a Midwest health reporting collaboration based at WFYI. A long-time Hoosier, she is thrilled to stay in her hometown to cover public health. Previously, she covered education for WFYI News with a focus on school safety. Carter graduated with a journalism degree from Indiana University, and previously interned with stations in Bloomington, Indiana and Juneau, Alaska.
