Riding the Wave into a New School Year!


Last week, we kicked off the school year with some special days: Monday through Wednesday for our dedicated staff and Thursday and Friday for our amazing students. It was wonderful to see our halls filled with energy, laughter, and excitement as students returned to Ivy Hill!


Our teachers and staff set the stage early in the week, preparing for the journey ahead, and our students joined in with enthusiasm that brought our theme—Ride the Wave—to life. Together, we’re ready for a year filled with learning, laughter, and epic adventures

DISMISSALS

We want every student to get home safely and smoothly, and your help makes a big difference!

Thanks so much for keeping us in the loop! With your support, dismissal can be calm, organized, and as joyful as the start of the day.
