Grandparents and VIP's are welcome to bring lunch to students or purchase lunch in the cafeteria. An adult lunch from the cafeteria is $3.75. If you wish to eat lunch from our cafeteria, tickets must be purchased in advance. Please send a request for tickets, payment, and your menu choice, to your child's/grandchild's teacher. Tickets may not be purchased at school the day of lunch. The kids are looking forward to this "grand" event!!
Parents-Don't forget about our Decade Dance tomorrow night! We want to see some awesome decades costumes!
Take a look at our new arrival! If you have been in the building lately, you may have noticed our new Inchy Bookworm Vending Machine. Our vending machine isn't your normal machine loaded with candy and snacks. It's loaded with lots of great reads. This vending machine doesn't take just any type of coins either. Kids can earn tokens to purchase books from Inchy by showing kindness, being a good friend, being respectful, showing effort, collaborating with their classmates, and honesty. The kids are super excited to begin earning coins and purchasing books from Inchy!
Classes are dismissed on Mon, Jan. 20th in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Classes will resume on Tues., Jan. 21st.
Tomorrow is Class Picture Day! Be sure to send forms and money to school with your child if you wish to purchase one.
We are looking forward to seeing all of our students back at school Monday morning! This is also a great time to wash and sanitize backpacks, jackets, coats, and hats before coming back to school for the new year. This helps in preventing the spread of colds and flu throughout our building. We want to keep all of our students and staff healthy! Also, please remember to dress your child properly for the weather each day. Children are outside for recess unless the temperature or wind chill is too cold. Happy 2020!
