Greencastle Senior High School

What Greencastle Senior High School does

Greencastle Community School Corporation (GCSC) is a public K-12 school district and Indiana government state entity serving students from preschool through grade 12 in the Greencastle, Putnam County, Indiana area. The district operates five physical campuses: Greencastle Senior High School (grades 9-12), Greencastle Middle School (grades 6-8), Tzouanakis Intermediate School (grades 3-5), Ridpath Primary School (kindergarten through grade 2), and Deer Meadow Primary School (preschool through grade 2). Its core service offering is free public education for district residents, supplemented by preschool, special education, English Language Learning services, fine arts, athletics, food services, health services, and transportation. The district is funded by local property taxes, state education funding (Indiana per-pupil base approximately $7,805.87, with Ridpath Primary at approximately $7,939.11 per pupil), and federal categorical grants including Title I, IDEA, and McKinney-Vento.

The technology stack is built entirely on commercial, off-the-shelf K-12 platforms rather than proprietary systems: Skyward serves as the district-wide student information system with family portal access; ParentSquare handles school-to-family communications with Google and Microsoft 365 SSO; Follett Destiny (v23.5.0) manages library catalogs across all five schools; Curriculum Associates' i-Ready provides K-2 diagnostic and personalized instruction in reading and math; DIBELS provides K-2 literacy screening; Lexile frameworks integrate into the library catalog; NutriSlice powers digital food service menus; DocuSign processes electronic forms district-wide; Vector Training (Safe Schools) handles staff professional development; and the Indiana GPS Dashboard provides state-mandated reporting. The pedagogical differentiation framework includes PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) for school culture and WIN (What I Need) Time for differentiated instruction and intervention.

The business model is government funding via tax revenues, with no tuition charged for in-district students. Out-of-district families can apply via the Non-Resident Transfer process for the 2026-2027 school year. Enrollment is geographically determined by home address within district catchment boundaries. The district employs 100+ staff members across all five schools, with a 14:1 student-teacher ratio district-wide and 8:1 at Ridpath Primary. Revenue concentration is by definition total: a single government funding pool from state, local, and federal sources. Customer outcomes are tracked through standardized assessments: 94% IREAD-3 pass rate district-wide in 2025, 80% IREAD-2 pass rate at Deer Meadow, 92% DIBELS proficiency at Deer Meadow first grade, and 93%/88% DIBELS proficiency at Ridpath kindergarten/first grade respectively. Leadership is provided by Superintendent Jeff Gibboney, with Rebecca McPherson as Assistant Superintendent and Kimberly Sullivan as Special Education Director.
