INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis Public Schools wants to share more about its new transportation plan and get feedback from parents.

The district is hosting a series of virtual town hall meetings April 12-16 to share details about the administration's latest proposed changes to district transportation for the 2021–22 school year. 

On Monday, district leaders will talk about IPS Walk Zones and the yellow bus service to IndyGo for High School students.
