January Parent/Family Update

January 11, 2026

Parent/Family Update

Dear Parents/Families,

We are well on our way to a successful 2026! TZ students returned to school ready to learn. We have hit the ground running!

Academic Updates & ILEARN Checkpoints
Fourth and fifth grade students have completed their ILEARN Checkpoint 2 Assessments and third grade will be finished with their testing soon.
  • Checkpoint Assessment Scores: After your student participates, you can access their scores and detailed reports through the ILEARN Family Portal. You will need your student’s unique 6-digit access code, which was previously provided by the school.
  • First Semester Grades: Final grades for the first semester are now available for viewing via the Parent Portal.
  • Help Needed?: Contact the school office if you need help with accessing this information.

Looking Ahead
We have several upcoming activities scheduled.
  • Jan 16: Spirit Day
  • Jan 19: No School (MLK Day)
  • Jan 22: Blood Drive
  • Jan 26: PTO Meeting
  • Jan 29: McTeacher Night at Greencastle McDonald's
Flyers for most events are attached to this newsletter. Please check with your student's teacher for details.

Thank you for your continued support of our school.

Warmly,
Lisa Eldridge, Principal
