Greater Indianapolis Conference

The Greater Indianapolis Conference is an IHSAA-sanctioned conference formed in 2018. The conference consists of charter schools in Indianapolis, including two that were formerly in the Indianapolis Public Schools system.[1] The conference also sponsors football, as Lighthouse-East began football, joining Howe and Manual. [2] The conference faced drastic changes in its second year, as Lighthouse-East was closed down, leaving the GIC with five members.[3] The league responded by adding three charter schools and two public schools, including another IPS school.[4]

gollark: > A TLV variable name is a random pronounceable three-letter string, sometimes with some vague relationship to its meaning, but usually not. Usually CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) is a good choice.WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS
gollark: Isn't a u16 a "word" anyway?
gollark: What was wrong with `u64` or something?
gollark: ```c typedef uint64_t c3_d; // double-word typedef int64_t c3_ds; // signed double-word typedef uint32_t c3_w; // word typedef int32_t c3_ws; // signed word typedef uint16_t c3_s; // short typedef int16_t c3_ss; // signed short typedef uint8_t c3_y; // byte typedef int8_t c3_ys; // signed byte typedef uint8_t c3_b; // bit```Wow, this is HIGHLY readable.
