Greenwood Christian Academy will join the Indiana Crossroads Conference (ICC) in July 2025, amid significant conference realignment in Johnson County. This new alignment includes seven small private schools, such as Cardinal Ritter and Covenant Christian. The move comes as Beech Grove, Monrovia, and others leave for the newly formed Hoosier Legends Conference. GCA's entry into the ICC places its football program in a competitive environment, especially with teams like Indy Lutheran, recent state champions. Athletic director Shon Cottle acknowledges the challenges ahead but sees the overall competitive field as beneficial for the program.

Julie Jarvis edged out House District 57 incumbent Jeanette Ward, earning more than 56% of the vote in Tuesday’s Republican primary race, according to unofficial results. Rep. Ward, a firebrand for the hard-line Wyoming Freedom Caucus, moved from Illinois to Wyoming about a year before winning office in 2022. Jarvis, a lifelong Wyoming resident, is director of teaching and learning for the Natrona County School District. The candidates offered vastly different approaches regarding education and social issues.
