Every Child, Every Opportunity, Every time !
Dear Indian Prairie Families,
Thank you for being an integral part of our Indian Prairie community! As we embark on this academic year, I am pleased to report that the beginning has been exceptionally promising. I am genuinely excited about the opportunities and experiences that the remainder of the year will bring.
Currently, our teachers are actively engaged in fall benchmark testing, a crucial component of our educational assessment process. To ensure that your child benefits fully from this important phase, it is essential that they attend school every day and arrive on time. Your support in this matter is greatly appreciated, as it contributes significantly to your child's success and overall academic growth. Thank you for your continued partnership!
Warm regards,
Ms. Tammo Nelson
Principal, Indian Prairie
