Indian Bayou Elementary
February 2022
A message from our principal
I know that student attendance has been at the mercy of CDC guidelines concerning quarantines, but the teachers and I want to thank all of you who have stepped up and made sure that your child completed the work that was sent home when they couldn't attend school. It makes all the difference in your child's learning and in their success when they return from a long absence.
Also, if your child has 12 or more absences (not quarantine absences), they are in danger of repeating their current grade level. Parent notes are important and they allow students to make up missed work; however, they do not completely excuse them from missing school. It is important for your child to attend school consistenly. If you need support in this area, please reach out to us!
The library book fair is happening this month! Students will visit the book fair during the school day, but we will be hosting a parent night during the book fair week if you'd like to visit along with your child. Information will be sent home soon!
February is the month of LOVE! And I cannot pass up an opportunity to tell you how much I love your children, and how much I love YOU! All of us here at IBES value your children and the awesome families that come along with them. Thank you for helping us to make Indian Bayou a place of learning, love, support, and family!
