School Leader Resources

In 2011, leading national education nonprofit TNTP launched a website for school leaders called the Teacher Talent Toolbox. The website houses hundreds of free tools contributed by successful schools, districts and states from around the country. Charter schools authorized by the ICSB may find useful tools on this website for managing their teaching staff.

The Indiana Department of Education ("IDOE") also serves as a resource for all school leaders, teachers and administrators. For guidance on whom to contact within the IDOE for assistance, please either call the ICSB at 317-232-7585 or the IDOE Main Office at 317-232-6610.

The IDOE Office of Educator Effectiveness and Leadership provides guidance to school corporations on the implementation of teacher evaluation legislation and locally developed annual evaluation tools. To visit the Office of Educator Effectiveness and Leadership webpage, please click here.

The IDOE Office of Special Education works with Indiana schools and families to ensure that all eligible students with disabilities are provided a free appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment. The Special Education staff serves as a resource for all schools and can offer guidance regarding compliance with IDEA, provision of medication and due process rights, and sound fiscal management.
