Irvington Weekly Newsletter
May 5, 2023
I can't speak for all staff, but I will say that I'm walking out of the builidng today about ten pounds heavier than I was last week. The demonstration of appreciation was overwhelming (especially with the food)!, and I can't thank families enough. Thank YOU for trusting us with your children; we're working our hardest to do right by them, and all of your appreciation is noticed and felt.
With gratitude,
Mr. G.

Spaghetti Dinner: Last Call for RSVPs!
The Spaghetti Dinner is coming back to Irvington May 25, 5:30pm-7:00pm in the Irvington School Cafeteria. An Irvington tradition, it's a chance to build community where teachers serve the food and families share a meal together in the Irvington cafeteria! If you haven’t already done so and plan to attend, please RSVP here - your best estimate will help immensely! Please email ptapres@irvingtonschool.com with any questions.

Class Lists for Next Year
Making class lists is a long process; we take time because we want to make the right decision for each student. Our staff know your children well--both their academic and social needs--and our goal is to set them up for success next year. To that end, please do not contact staff to request a certain teacher as we may not be able to honor it. That said, if you are moving out of the neighborhood and won't be attending Irvington next year, please reach out to the office as soon as possible to let us know.
