Education is at the heart of our mission, and the Department of Learning leads this effort for Noblesville Schools. The Department of Learning oversees all curriculum, instruction, assessment, educator professional learning, growth, and evaluation, high-ability programming, English language learner programming, and multiple grants that support and enhance student learning and academic achievement. The Department of Learning collaborates regularly and closely with members of the Special Education, Technology, and Student Services Departments to focus on meeting all student learning needs and to ensure every student is provided the opportunity to reach their full potential.
