Options In Education Foundation

Not all students take the same path, and we’re here to support every one of them.

Through the Options in Education Foundation, your support funds real-world career preparation that helps students graduate with confidence, direction, and hands-on experience.

Your donation makes possible:
- Technical training and industry- recognized certifications
- Internships and job shadowing with local businesses
- Career mentorships and work-based learning opportunities

Many of our students are the first in their families to graduate, and for them, a trade program or certification can open life-changing doors.

This pathway isn’t just about jobs. It’s about purpose, independence, and hope.

At Options Schools, student success goes beyond the classroom. Our Student Wellness Program provides vital support in mental health, nutrition, and emotional well-being, ensuring every student has what they need to thrive.

From counseling and wellness check-ins to access to our student pantry, we’re here to meet students where they are, with compassion and care.

Because when students feel supported, they’re empowered to succeed.

At the Options in Education Foundation, our impact is only possible because of the incredible program partners who stand with us in supporting students across Indiana. Our program partners help us meet students where they are and walk with them toward a brighter future.
