CSUSA was nominated by the state in 2012 to turn over three failing schools in Indianapolis. a first-in-the-nation type project. The three schools were Thomas Carr Howe Community High School, Emmerich Manual High School, and Emma Donnan Middle School. The schools were given over on a performance contract, which granted Charter Schools USA four years to improve; this contract was renewed in 2015. Upon the arrival of the second renewal date for CSUSA's contract in June 2022, Indianapolis Public Schools opposed the renewal of operator's contract. IPS Superintendent Aleesia Johnson "cited academic and financial concerns among reasons she [wanted] to cut ties with the private company and [said] she [wanted] to find a locally-based operator to run the K-6 and 7-8 schools as innovation schools." Ultimately, CSUSA's contract was not renewed, and control of the schools was turned over to IPS, which then closed Thomas Carr Howe Community High School and reassigned operation of Emma Donnan Elementary and Middle School and Emmerich Manual High School to local charter operators Adelante Schools and Christel House Indianapolis, respectively. Said IPS Board Commissioner Diane Arnold, "I think it was the other issues that came up. The leadership. The drastic teacher turnover rates and some of the other issues, like not getting information from them. I don’t think it was a mistake [to approve in 2015]. We gave it a chance.”
The turnaround process was first put into motion by a 1999 law, which said schools with student standardized test scores in the lowest category for five straight years could face intervention from the State Board of Education.
