Dear Ivan Green Families:

This is not a drop-off event, so bring the whole family for some pizza and some socializing! I know of a few teachers who will be joining us - who will they be?!


Sincerely,
Lucas Hiley, Ed.D.

Kindergarten Reading Intervention

Each of our kindergarten classrooms has a reading teacher assigned to it. In the first few months of school, we use our reading teachers to reinforce initial kindergarten learning in small groups. These groups may change each day or each week. Once we get to know our learners better (November), we will notify individual families if their child continues to work directly with one of our reading teachers. Please let us know if you have any questions about your child's reading progress.

Coffee with the Principal

Our next Coffee with the Principal is with Mrs. Swartz, our AVID coordinator. She will provide an overview of AVID Elementary, which is a framework for our school to find success for all students.

From the Kitchen

The kitchen will start selling snacks every Friday. Ice cream cones or ice cream on a stick is $1.00. Dixie cups ice cream is $0.75. cookies are $0.75 each and chips are $1.00.


If your child receives free lunch, you can still add money for snacks. The money will only be used for the "extras."

The Book Fair is Coming!

Get Ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way (YAY!). Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them to become Bolder, Prouder, and Stronger Readers. AND—as always—every book they buy earns rewards for our school.  Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from October 16th-October 20th during your child’s library special, in the library.  This year, once again, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account.  Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Cash however, will still be accepted as well.  Just click on the QR code below to visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping:

Socktober Theme Days and Sock Collection

We are teaming up with the other EICSD elementary schools and celebrating Socktober! This is a time for us to participate in some sock-focused theme days and sock collection. We will donate our socks to the Irondequoit Community Cupboard.
