💥 WE HIT 1,000+ SIGNATURES! Now, Let's Not Forget this a Statewide Movement

​Fellow Student Advocates, Supporters of IPS—You Did It! And we are still going....we need more!

​We are thrilled to announce that, thanks to your passion and commitment, we have officially surpassed 1,000 signatures on our petition! This is more than just a number; it is a clear, undeniable demonstration of the powerful support for Indianapolis Public Schools and the future of our students.

​Take a moment to absorb that victory. Over a thousand individuals—parents, teachers, alumni, and concerned citizens—have added their voices to this critical cause. We are building a movement that is too loud to ignore.

​The Next Mission: Indiana Needs to Hear Us
​While 1,000+ signatures is incredible momentum in Indianapolis, our fight for our students to be safe against officials who don't believe our youth are worthy of protection by the laws established in this country. Decision-makers need to see that support for IPS stretches far beyond Marion County—it’s a commitment shared by people across Indiana.

​We need to turn this local fire into a statewide ripple effect because what happens to IPS with this issue can set a precedent for all schools across Indiana. 

​Your 60-Second Action Plan: Share the Link
​We're asking every signer to take one minute and ensure five new people see this petition. But this time, let’s focus our energy outside our immediate circles to amplify our impact across the state.

​1. Friends & Family: Text the petition link to every family member and friend you have living in Indiana, no matter how far from Indy they are.

2. Peers & Colleagues: Share the link with professional networks, particularly those who work in education, healthcare, or state-funded services.

3. Community Leaders: Reach out to local officials, neighborhood association heads, or influential community members in neighboring counties.

4. Students & Alumni: Encourage every former and current IPS student to share their experience and the petition on their social media channels.

​Every signature added from Bloomington, Fort Wayne, Evansville, Gary and more validates our cause and increases the pressure on the Attorney General that we are standing together!

​Keep the momentum going. We are the voice of change, and together, we will ensure every child in all of our schools are worthy of being safe! 

​Thank you for being a committed part of this vital mission.
