Dear Indian Prairie Families,

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who attended the Indian Prairie Open House. It was truly a delight to see such a diverse group of students and families engaging with their classrooms and exploring our school. Your participation made the event a resounding success, and we appreciate the opportunity to connect with you in this vibrant educational environment. Thank you for being a part of our community!

Warm regards,

Ms. Tammo Nelson

Attendance Matters
Research shows that attendance and punctuality are important for student success. Tardies and early dismissals add up and can lead to chronic absenteeism, as well as absences early in the year. We understand emergencies and illnesses happen, but we encourage students to attend school whenever possible.

If you need help creating an attendance plan or resources, please contact Ms. Jenn, our home support specialist at baaremanjl@kalamazoopublicschools.net
