Beech Grove Chamber of Commerce Presents: A Conversation on the Future of Beech Grove Schools

The future of our schools impacts every member of our community—not just those with children currently in the classroom. Strong schools help attract families, support local businesses, strengthen property values, and contribute to the overall vitality of Beech Grove.

Join us as Dr. Laura Hammack, Superintendent of Beech Grove City Schools, provides an informative presentation about the 2026 Operational Referendum and what it means for our community. This is an opportunity to hear directly from school leadership, learn how Indiana school funding works, understand what the referendum would support, and ask questions in an open community forum.

Topics will include:
• How Indiana school funding works
• The impact of property tax caps on Beech Grove City Schools
• What the referendum will fund
• Financial transparency and accountability
• What is at stake if the referendum does not pass
• A community Q&A session following the presentation

Whether you're a business owner, resident, parent, homeowner, or simply invested in the future of Beech Grove, this meeting is an opportunity to become informed and engaged.

Knowledge leads to informed decisions. We encourage everyone to attend, ask questions, and be part of the conversation as we discuss the future of Beech Grove City Schools and our community.
