IHES Sock Drive
We are starting our Sock Drive. Socks are items that are one of the most needed but one of the least donated. For this reason, when speaking to shelters, one of the items requested is socks. Socks can be an inexpensive way to make a big impact on someone's life. Please donate new pairs, especially men's and women's sizes, of socks to help us reach our goal of 600 pairs.
Important Note
Our Carroll School Field Trip has been rescheduled to Tuesday, April 25th due to scheduling conflicts. A permission slip will be going home next week. The cost of the field trip is free. Please turn in all field trip slips as soon as possible.
Classroom Supplies Needed
We are still desperate need of dry erase markers. We use these almost daily in math for extra practice and review. If you could help by donating a pack to our classroom we would be extremely grateful!
Important Dismissal Policy Changes..... Please Read!
A parent request for a student transportation change request will only be approved by the principal when it is requested in person or in writing by the students’ parent/legal guardian. In this case, we are defining writing as a hand written note that is sent with the student from home. Students can only be released to individuals that are listed on the student information card. In emergency situations, a transportation change or releasing a child to an adult not on the card MUST be confirmed by calling the parent/legal guardian on a phone number that is on the card or by using video chat. Please begin phasing out the process of accepting e-mails for dismissal changes. By March 1 we will no longer accept emails.
