SENSE Charter School was built on the foundation of serving students and families residing on the Southeast Side of Indianapolis. We were recently made aware of a need through media and concerned parents. In staying true to our community commitment, SENSE Charter School will be adding new stops to accommodate unsafe walking conditions. New bus stop boundaries will encompass Keystone to the East, Raymond to the North, and Hoefgen to the South. Call 317-423-0204 for more information.
The SENSE Charter food pantry will be open tomorrow Thursday August 1st from 8:30-9:30 am and again 3:30-4:30 pm. This is open to all SENSE families only. Enter in the doors off the alley. Please note. There is heavy construction in the alley so you may want to park away from the pantry door and then just walk in. We are in need of volunteers to help run the pantry. Both sifts have openings. Contact Kate Voss kvoss@senseindy.org for more details.

During the week of June 17th – 21st, some of the members of the SENSE Charter Cub Scouts, Pack 18, enjoyed a week of day camping at Belzer Camp. The camp is situated on a wooded, 100 acre facility that has been in development for over 90 years. Camp Belzer was created to provide a safe environment where Cub Scouts can learn, advance, and play in the great outdoors. The pics are from bb rifle and archery activities, as well as during lunch break time.
