Advancing the Near Northwest Area Through Educational Attainment and Investment
Marian University has been an anchor institution in the Near Northwest Area (NNW) community since it was relocated here by the Sisters of St. Francis of Oldenburg in 1937. Marian, in partnership with NNW, is spearheading the Riverside Education Innovation District (REID), to:
REID is a commitment to lifelong learning and community revitalization. From literacy initiatives to adult education, we are on a mission to foster a culture of lifelong learning and personal growth for all ages.
REID begins with a commitment to support local schools as they work to meet state standards of a 95% IREAD-3 pass rate. 48% of third-grade students in Near Northwest Area schools pass the I-READ assessment.
Throughout the former Larue Carter property, Marian University and trusted partners will bring high-quality programming to the Near Northwest Area and be a resource for learners of all ages.
Through the continued engagement of partners, funders, and the active participation of the community, REID will serve as a beacon of opportunity and transformation.
Join us in investing in the quality of life and place in the Near Northwest Area of Indianapolis.
