Attention 3rd Grade Parents:
We have reached that time of the year when 3rd grade students will be given the mandatory state required IREAD-3 Test. This test will be administered to all of our Hinkle Creek 3rd graders next week. It is a very important test, so parents please make sure your child is present at school and if at all possible, please schedule any necessary medical or dental appointments after school hours. Thank you!
Thank you for being such great parents!
Jack Lawrence; Principal at Hinkle Creek

Note from our Nurses
Hinkle Creek Families,
Thank you for the way you have carefully monitored your children's health as we have tried to keep Covid out of our school. While the new guidance from the state will lighten the requirement of contact tracing and testing, we do still encourage you to continue to keep children at home if they aren't feeling well. Kids who are sick are really not ready to learn, and still can spread illness to others around them. Please review the document from the Indiana Department of Education, "How Sick is Too Sick?", and consider those guidelines moving forward.
Thank you!
Nurse Kerry & Nurse Mel
