ILEARN Checkpoint Assessments
The Indiana Department of Education is piloting a new system of testing with ILEARN. The elementary schools in the Fayette County School Corporation are participating in the pilot. This is for students in grades 3-6. Students will be given a short math and ELA test three times on specific essential standards before taking the summative ILEARN. This will provide teachers, students, and parents information on standards students are mastering and standards that may require additional support prior to taking the summative ILEARN. Below is more information on the ILEARN Checkpoints.
Little Spartans Preschool Food Pantry/Clothing Closet
