WE SUPPORT™ Community Survey
The following information is for the survey provided by our Lead Partner - Scholastic. This survey needs to be taken by parents/guardians of our students and the community.
The We Support Survey is designed to provide districts/schools with an understanding of expectations and perceptions the community has about the district/school and student learning. Results, which are anonymous, are tabulated by the Successful Practices Network and reported back to you.
Thank you in advance for completing this survey . The insight you provide will be valuable in our ongoing efforts to improve student achievement.

Welcome to the Broad Ripple High School Web Site. For those of you new to our site we have attempted to offer you an overview of our institution. For families already present at BRHS, you will find vital information concerning the daily operation of the school.
Broad Ripple has been a valuable and important component in the Indianapolis Public School System and a landmark on the northside of Indianapolis since 1886. Our graduates number in the thousands, many of whom have assumed very prominent positions in the city and across the state. We are even nationally known because of the success of a 1965 graduate - Mr. David Letterman.
BRHS - Broader, Richer, Human Service. This acronym symbolizes the spirit of the staff, the students, and the parents of our school. Broad Ripple is a learning place, which offers an education for a diverse population. Broad Ripple is a school committed to excellence in its students and staff: a school where students will experience success and the appropriate preparation to become productive and responsive citizens.
Our mission is to serve our students by guiding and inspiring them to develop their artistic and academic gifts and discover their full potential for success in a diverse and competitive society, through a foundation based on a creative study of all arts and humanities
