As the end of this school year winds down I am sending out some reminders:

• 3rd Grade Physical Exam Forms: Physical exam forms must be submitted before the start of 4th grade. Parents are reminded to copy the forms before handing them in.
• 2nd Grade Physical Exam Forms: Physical exams for students entering 3rd grade are required. Please get the blue forms completed as soon as your child has his/her yearly physical exam any time after January 1, 2013. Please make a copy for your own personal record before submitting the physical to me.
• Continue Checking for Lice/Nits: Parents are encouraged to continue to take a proactive approach to this matter by checking children at home and if away on vacation as part of the regular home routine. This proactive approach has prevented this issue from becoming as prevalent as it has been in other schools.

Thank you for all of your support/cooperation throughout the school year. Your children have all been a joy to take care of. I hope everyone has a healthy, enjoyable and safe summer. See you all in August 2013!

As the volunteer coordinators for Box Tops for Education, we would like to thank you for your help during the 2012-2013 school year.

In September, the school house collection box will once again be located in the corridor outside of the Main Office. Please put appropriately trimmed box tops in plastic baggies or envelopes (in groups of 50, when possible). Please make sure that your child's name and class are clearly labeled.

You may order Summer Skills Review Books for math, language arts, keyboarding, Spanish, and French language skills. These are by no means required: however, you might wish to use them to maintain your child's skill in these areas over the summer. Since they are review material, you will want to order the book for the grade level your child is leaving. If you have questions about the appropriate level please ask your child's classroom teacher. Sample copies of the books as well as order forms are available in the office; order form is also below. Contact Emma Eschricht with questions. 

ISD 3rd Annual Tag Sale & Fun Run

Plan now to join the family fun! Staggered start times for all grade levels. Prizes for all finishers. To volunteer for the Fun Run, contact Cathy Steel or Louise McKenna.
