It Takes District 5: Support Yuri Smith for IPS Board

Our Mission: Family Empowers the Classroom


I am an IPS graduate and a veteran educator with 20 years of experience serving our students. I am running for the IPS Board because I believe that when a community invests in one child, it strengthens us all.


My 3-Point Plan for District 5:

  1. The “Fave 5” Guarantee: Ensuring every student has a dedicated circle of 5 trusted adult mentors.
  2. Schools as Community Hubs: Transforming school buildings into resource centers for neighborhoods and families.
  3. Learner Roadmaps: Creating a personalized success plan for every single student.


Where a child begins should not determine where they can go. Help us build the "village" our students deserve.


Donate today to help us cross the finish line!
