Grades 3-5 IDOE Family Portal

ILEARN Checkpoint 3 results are available on the Family Portal.

The Indiana Assessment Family Portal is a secure online tool where you can view your child’s ILEARN, IREAD, or IAM results. It helps you understand your child’s strengths, areas for growth, and how they’re performing compared to grade-level expectations.

Parents must have an access code and register for the system. Access codes were mailed previously. If you need your access code, please call the office.

Our registration link is now available to sign up for our kindergarten or first grade Spanish dual-language immersion. If your child is already in the program, we will automatically continue them in the program for the 2026-2027. Incoming 2026-2027 kindergarten students AND now first grade students are welcome to apply. Please see the brochure below in English/Spanish for common questions and answers. For more information, please reach out to Parkwood's office. (812) 945-2387

Students in grades K-2 will be bringing their devices home nightly now. Students in grades 3-5 will bring their devices home nightly unless it was marked otherwise during registration. Please make sure that your student has a place to charge their Chromebook every night.

Replacement Prices

Chromebook Device $376

🚌 Nothing says school quite like getting to ride the school bus. Please visit this link to read information about GCCS transportation. Please note, students who have the same address and rode the school bus last year do not need to sign up for transportation again.

Download the My Ride K-12 application for real-time bus updates.

Please click this link to access elementary student handbooks. We have seen a rise in students bringing toys to school. Please read below to see our policy on items brought to school.

Breakfast – $2.00 / reduced price $.30. If your student is going to eat breakfast, please have them arrive to school as close to 8:40 as possible (if not a bus rider) so they may begin their academic day at 9:00.

Lunch - $3.10 / reduced price $.40
