Indiana Schools Hide Injury Data | Indianapolis News
Description
Indiana’s quietly ending public reporting on teacher injuries — but one district is stepping up with its own bold move. Bartholomew Consolidated School District released its first internal report revealing 319 incidents of staff injured by students in a single year, with 89% occurring in elementary schools. Driven by school board member Jason Major, the report aims to spark real conversations about safety, especially around trauma and special needs students. While state law will soon require schools to report battery incidents to the Department of Labor (without public access), this local transparency effort hopes to drive real change and reassure educators they’re being heard.
