Support Indianapolis’ Best Public High School
Herron High School, a member of Indianapolis Classical Schools, does not receive public funds to cover the full cost of operation because of how Indiana chooses to fund schools. As a result, we rely on contributions from individuals and community groups to create a community of scholars and sustain our academic excellence.
Support from individuals like you has led to incredible results. Just look at what we’ve accomplished in the past year:
- Received an “A” rating and designation as a Four Star School by the Indiana Department of Education
- Ranked as a top 5 public high school in Indiana and among the top 1% of public high schools nationwide by U.S. News & World Report
- Listed as one of “America’s Most Challenging High Schools” by the Washington Post
Your tax-deductible gift will impact our scholars and empower Herron High School and Riverside High School to continue to provide our students with a rich and rigorous education that ignites their imaginations and sets them on a course for lifelong success and achievement.
