Panorama Survey: WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK!
An email from Panorama was sent to you requesting that you complete a survey. Most likely this email went to your SPAM folder. Please take a moment to look for this email from “Panorama Education Team”. (see picture attached)
The email will ask you to take 10 minutes to complete a survey that will help IES track many things, but most importantly our work with family partnerships. If your child’s class reaches 90%, they will receive a popcorn party from PTA the week before Thanksgiving!
We appreciate your feedback and input to help us continue building strong family partnerships for our Mavericks!

PTA Wins Awards!
COACH LEACH WINS DISTRICT AWARD
No Soda November 2017
The 7th Annual No Soda November is just a few days away. This is a great opportunity for your IES student to start developing healthy habits by reducing the amount of soda and other carbonated beverages they drink. Since this challenge started 6 years ago, more and more students have completed the challenge by not drinking a soda for an entire month. Once again, other Keller ISD schools have joined the challenge. At the end of the month we will determine which school has the highest percentage of students and staff who go soda free for the month. Encourage your student to help IES win!
What to do: Print off the attached calendar or make your own calendar to track your child’s progress. Starting November 1, put a smiley face on each day your child does not drink a carbonated beverage.
Turn in the results: Please turn in completed calendars to Coach Leach or fill out the google form (Link below) by Wednesday, December 6.
Winners: Mavericks who successfully complete all 30 days and turn in their calendars will go into a drawing. Coach will draw four names and those four students will get to dump BUCKETS of ICE WATER on Principal Basham and Coach Leach!
