Fifteen northeast Indiana school districts have joined forces to create the Northeast Indiana Public Schools Advocacy Consortium. NIPSAC has hired Borror Public Affairs, an Indianapolis-based lobbying group, to oversee legislative action and executive decisions that could impact the school corporations.

“We are honored that NIPSAC has engaged Borror Public Affairs for the 2021 legislative session,” said Randy Borror, principal at Borror Public Affairs.

There are about 78,000 students enrolled in NIPSAC schools.

Member schools include Bluffton-Harrison, East Allen County Schools, East Noble, Fort Wayne Community Schools, Huntington County Community Schools, MSD of Southwest Allen County Schools, MSD of Wabash County, North Adams, Northern Wells, Northwest Allen County Schools, Smith-Green Community Schools, South Adams, Southern Wells, Whitko Community Schools, and Whitley County Consolidated Schools. 

“Through this lens, we believe it is imperative to regionalize our advocacy efforts and ensure an informative and productive dialogue with our state legislators,” said Daniel Hile, superintendent of Smith Green Community Schools.
