 Mission Statement

Students of all ages are empowered as lifelong learners to acquire knowledge to meet the new realities of the 21st Century in a learning environment which promotes excellence and fosters mutual respect, and the realization of the utmost potential.
Schools have always been a source of pride in the Knightstown area. Charles A. Beard Memorial School Corporation was founded in 1965. It serves residents of Greensboro and Wayne Townships in Henry County and Ripley township in Rush County, an area of approximately 95 square miles.
The district operates three elementary buildings, kindergarten through fourth grade, one intermediate building, grades five through eight, and a brand new high school building for grades nine through twelve.
The impressive new facility offers our students and staff the latest architectural and technological design space, including modern fine arts and science laboratory facilities and a state-of-the-art auditorium.
Current enrollment is approximately 1,400 students with 94 certified staff and 107 support staff. They are governed by an elected board of seven school trustees. The student/teacher ration is low by city standards, which ensures more personal attention. It is duly accredited and offers 20 extra curricular clubs with an active student council, student assistants program, school-to-work program, job shadowing, long distance learning, cadet teaching, advance placement, 23 vocational programs, peer tutoring, Project Peace, gifted and talented, special education, DARE drug program and academic competitions. It is a member of the White River Athletic Conference and participates in 17 interscholastic sports as well as five intramural sports programs.
