Indiana schools to revive A-F school grading system: How the new system differs from the current one
Indiana is set to reintroduce the A-F grading system after a multi-year hiatus. Approved by the House Education Committee, House Bill 1498 aims to evaluate schools on broader criteria, including literacy rates, attendance, and work-based learning. The new system will be implemented in 2026-27. However, some lawmakers oppose the A-F model, proposing an alternative two-tier system.
