 Important Changes To Race & Ethnicity Reporting
 | | Currently, the LaPorte Community School Corporation asks families to provide information on students’ race and ethnicity at the time of enrollment. Due to changes from the U.S. Department of Education and the federal government, we will now ask the families of newly enrolled students AND of all current students to complete a brief form to update information on their children’s ethnicity and race. The collection of data from staff will occur at a later date.
Please review the information below for additional information. Links for both English and Spanish versions have been provided:

• I-STEP+ Percent Passing both English/LA and Math
