Hello Indian Run Families,

We are in the home stretch! We have officially made it to the last week of school. This year has flown by! It has been nothing short of amazing to see the growth our students have made this year. We are so proud of them and of all their accomplishments this year. IRE is a special, special place thanks to our amazing students! We love them!

Just a reminder that next week is a bit different. Thursday is the last day for our KG students and Friday we dismiss at 12:25pm for grades 1-5. If you have any questions as we round out the year, please let us know.

Have a great weekend IRE!

Amber and Marty

If you can't watch it right at 7:00pm, no worries! The prerecorded event will be available on the The Wire page after it goes live. Keep an eye on your email for the concert link to be shared with you once production is complete. Then, grab a bowl of popcorn, get comfortable, and see you online at 7:00pm on Thursday, May 26. Enjoy the show!

Hello Indian Run Families,

As you begin planning for the 2022-2023 school year, parents and families can order school supplies for the upcoming year to support our PTO and check it off the summer to-do list. It's a win-win!

It's simple and easy! You can order online, now through through Wednesday, June 1st. Flyers went home with students last week. All orders will be paid for and ordered online. Supplies will then be delivered to IRE and available for pick up prior to the first day of school. More information about delivery and pick up will come in August.

Thanks to our PTO reps Justin Leyda and Lisa DeCenzo for organizing this online sale for our students and families!
