The Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) requires that all students in grades 3-8 participate in three ILEARN Checkpoints in addition to the ILEARN summative assessment in the spring each year. These Checkpoints are a component of the ILEARN through-year assessment for English/Language Arts (ELA) and Math. The window for the first Checkpoint opens the last week of September.

The Checkpoints occur seasonally in fall, winter, and spring, with an optional retest opportunity window opening concurrently. Each Checkpoint has 20-25 questions to show how an individual child is performing on key skills and concepts from the Indiana Academic Standards. Families may refer to the link below, which provides a flyer for each grade level, outlining the skills and concepts that will be assessed for each Checkpoint.

Following all fall testing, your child's school will send you an email with directions to access the new Family Portal, where you will be able to access your child's results. Make sure your email is up to date in Final Forms so you can get your Family Portal access code following the test window.
