School management at a low performing school on the westside of Indianapolis will change again for a third time in six years. The Indianapolis Public Schools board voted Thursday to partner with start-up charter operator Liberty Grove Schools to run Elder Diggs School 42 next fall.

Indianapolis Public Schools leaders did not renew the contract for Ignite Achievement Academy to operate Elder Diggs School 42 due to multiple factors, including instability among teachers and low academic performance.

Budget and legal concerns may stand in the way of Indianapolis Public Schools leaders' proposal to share referendum funds with district charter schools that receive thousands of dollars less in revenue compared to other IPS schools.

A dozen leaders of innovation charter schools who partner with Indianapolis Public Schools, want the district to share operation funds from the 2018 IPS property-tax referendum to increase pay for their teachers and help fund programs.
