Creating Opportunities for Student Success!
Creek Implementing “Leader in Me” Model
Indian Creek Local School District is undertaking a new initiative to follow the “Leader In Me” school improvement model, provided by Franklin Covey Education, which focuses on the universal challenges of academics, culture and leadership. The initiative will unfold over the next four years and incorporate teachers and youth to drive involvement among students and staff, build a high-trust environment in schools and student achievement and improve learning. The first part of the program has begun with the formation of the school team, which included 24 teachers and students at the July session. Stay tuned for more details!

Groundbreaking Hellbender Project at ICHS
Indian Creek High School received a generous grant of $15,000 from the Indian Creek Foundation to embark on a groundbreaking pilot program in collaboration with the State of Ohio. Creek high schoolers are participating in a mission to raise endangered hellbender salamanders and reintroduce them into the wild, with the aim of reviving their population. This initiative will allow our students to engage in a unique and meaningful educational experience while engaging in partnerships with the Jefferson County Soil and Water Conservation District, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and the Columbus Zoo.
