October 8th & 9th
Ila Elementary will be having parent conferences on Tuesday, October 8th and Wednesday, October 9th. Students will be dismissed at 12:30 to allow teachers the afternoons to conference with parents. We believe these conferences are important, and your attendance is strongly encouraged. Teachers will be available for conferences in their classrooms from 3:00 to 6:40 on Tuesday and 1:00 to 4:40 on Wednesday. We look forward to seeing you!
Pizza Night with Dad
Be sure to join us for Pizza with Dad on October 17th at 6:30 as we kick off our Watch D.O.G.S. program at Ila Elementary for the 2019-2020 school year. Watch D.O.G.S. is an innovative program where fathers and father-figures can make a positive impact on our children by volunteering in our school for at least one day of the school year.
Come and enjoy an evening with your Ila Gator and learn more about how you can make a difference at Ila Elementary by becoming a part of our Watch D.O.G.S. Team!
Field Trip Chaperones
Safety is a priority at Ila Elementary! In order to be considered as a parent chaperone on a field trip this year, you must have a clear criminal background check. During parent-teacher conferences on October 8th and 9th, you may complete a background check form in the front office. Be sure to bring your drivers license and $25.00 cash for the required background check fee. Parents without a clear background check are not allowed to attend IES field trips. Thanks for your continued support in keeping our Gators safe!
Happy Birthday to our IES staff with October birthdays!
