Literacy Family Guides for each elementary grade level K-5 from the Indiana Department of Education

We want your child to be successful, which is why we offer a variety of Academic Help Programs to our students at all of our schools. If you feel your child is in need, reach out to your child’s teacher to start the process of getting your student extra help.

One of the programs we offer is the award-winning Study Connection. Individuals are matched one-to-one with students who have been identified by their teachers as needing extra academic assistance. Pairs meet for one hour once a week during the school year. Students and tutors meet in a variety of places, including local businesses, places of higher education, churches and local elementary schools. At the end of the hour, students return to their schools for dismissal, or are dismissed by an FWCS employee if tutoring takes place in a local school.

This guide contains valuable information that students and parents need to know regarding daily life in our district, from calendars, school meals and transportation to our nationally recognized school choice program.
