About Us:

John H. Castle Elementary is a family-oriented school with a tradition of academic excellence. John H. Castle Elementary School, located in the central part of Ohio Township in the southwestern section of Warrick County was opened in 1965. Originally a K-8 school, Castle Elementary now houses kindergarten through fifth grade and is a feeder school to Castle North Middle School and Castle High School. Our school colors are blue, white and gold, and our mascot is the Pages. The school was named after John H. Castle, a local farmer who sold the land our school resides on to the Warrick County School Corporation.

With approximately 975 students and 75 faculty and support personnel, we are able to get to know your children as individuals. Our teachers design lessons that are intellectually engaging, requiring students to think and reason. Some of the programs utilized by teachers and staff to ensure all students succeed are: Accelerated Reader, DIBELS, NWEA, Moby Max, Math Seeds, Map Skills, Type to Learn, Response to Intervention, and Character Counts. Castle Elementary has continually been honored a ‘4 Star’ school from the state of Indiana.

Staff and students are encouraged to utilize technology to facilitate the learning process. Internet accessible classroom computers, iPads, mobile laptop computers, Promethean boards, LED projectors, and document cameras are available for teacher/student use. In addition, three computer labs equipped with thirty two networked computers, laser printers, and scanners support the instructional program.
