Dear IEY Families,
We hope that your child is off to a great school year! We thank all of our amazing parents who came out for Back to School Night! Please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher, school counselor, or grade level administrator if you have any questions. As we transition to Fall weather, we are already accumulating jackets and sweatshirts in our lost and found. Please ask your child to stop by the cafeteria to see if they have any belongings in the lost and found. At the end of each month, we will donate all unclaimed items to a local clothing charity organization such as the Goodwill. Please remind your children that cell phones are not allowed to be out during the school day. Phones should be put away, placed on silent, and remain out of sight until dismissal. Failure to abide by this will result in consequences. Please continue to read below for upcoming events and useful parent resources from our Student Assistance Counselor.
