Stop Using Your Children As Weapons

School advocates manipulate voters emotionally by framing tax opposition as anti-education.

Which HamCo schools were ranked the best

Good morning, Hamilton County. There are plenty of important races on the ballot this November (see our full guide here) , but it feels like the news in Indiana's 5th Congressional District race just keeps on coming. That's the Hamilton County district currently represented by U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz. Now four different media outlets have shifted their race predictions toward the Democrats. So what does that mean for Spartz's opponent Sen. J.D. Ford? Spartz loaned $450,000 to her campaign, a sign that even she likely thinks the race is close. And we've got a fact check of all of those ads. (I've got a nice stack of mailers on my own counter). In today's newsletter : The Carmel mayor is getting involved in a push for a state constitutional amendment. And, we've got photos from the Fishers High School marching band's performance over the weekend. Plus here are the trick or treat hours we know so far in Hamilton County. What we’re reading 🗞️: 27 ways to celebrate Halloween in the Indy area (including some local options), from Axios. This newsletter is compiled by Kaitlin Lange and Jake Allen.

Letter: HSE worth the investment

I am the parent of two children who attend Hamilton Southeastern Schools. Last year, my daughter had the opportunity to visit Hub & Spoke along with all of the other HSE fifth graders through the Maker 5 study trip. The teacher-in-residence helped her and her classmates create a business model, which propelled her to start selling 3D printed fidget toys at the Fishers Farmers’ Market. What an invaluable learning experience.

Preseason 3A girls basketball: Reigning champion Bellmont tops rankings

We are taking a class-by-class approach to our 2026-27 preseason Indiana girls high school basketball rankings so we can dive deeper into the top teams in each classification. We continue with Class 3A , where, unlike the other classes, there is a clear-cut favorite with defending state champion Bellmont returning virtually everyone from a season ago. But reclaiming the throne won't be an easy task, with a very deep pool of teams capable of contending for a spot at Gainbridge. Let's get to ranking. (I'll have more in-depth previews of the Central Indiana teams next week.) CLASS 3A 1. Bellmont (25-3, 3A state champions) The Braves are on the Norwell track. They won a state championship in 2026, are good enough to do so again in 2027, and the roster sets up so that if/when the success factor kicks in, they could certainly compete for a third consecutive deep tournament run in 2028. The Bleke twins, juniors Marianne and Ashley, announced their arrivals during last year's run to Gainbridge, both averaging over 13 points, with Marianne shooting 55.7% and Ashley firing 40.8% (32.4% 3FG). Kait Kitson and Lanie French are both dependable scores (and defenders) and will provide valuable senior
