📰 News we're reading
• Cloverdale Schools highlight positive trends in IREAD and ILEARN scores (suncommercial.com) — Cloverdale schools’ overall IREAD passing rate reached 88.4%, nearly matching Indiana’s 88.7%, according to results presented to the school board Nov. 9. Middle school math and language arts proficiency remained a challenge, and officials cautioned that new state scoring thresholds mean this year’s ILEARN results cannot be directly compared with previous years.

• Court News for Nov. 10, 2026 (bannergraphic.com) — Three Cloverdale residents appear in the latest Putnam County court filings: Emmanuel Cole Sanders faces a criminal vandalism charge, while Jonah N. Wyatt-Mann and Amber C. Lightle are listed for expired plates and speeding, respectively. The roundup records newly filed cases, not findings of guilt, alongside other county criminal and civil matters.
