Hi Ivy Families! We had another wonderful week at Ivy Celebrating Red Ribbon Week. Thanks to the PTA for organizing a fun week around a great cause. We had our first Musical Performance of the year and our 4th graders did a tremendous job! 4th grade parents who would like to order a Flash Drive of the performance, orders are due by next Friday, Nov. 2nd. Order forms can be picked up in the office. Have a great weekend! Be Courageous, Be Kind Scott Halloween - Wednesday!Wednesday, October 31st is Halloween and will not be a traditional school day. We want this to be a fun and safe day for all. Dismissal forms for lunch and costume change were due this past Friday. If you need to make any changes to your plan, please contact your child’s teacher no later than Wednesday at 8:00am. During the morning, students should arrive to school in normal attire (with the exception of AM Kindergartners). In the afternoon, we will be allowing students to leave for lunch/costume change. Cooperation and adherence to these times/procedures by all will provide an organized event and account for the safety of all our students.

PTA ReflectionsDoes your child enjoy art, music, and dance or have an interest in writing, producing films, and taking photos? Then they should join us and have fun unleashing their inner artist with PTA Reflections! This year’s theme, “Heroes Around Me,” calls for their own unique interpretation through the arts. Look for a flyer with additional information coming home in your child’s backpack. The Student Entry Form and Rules can be found on the Ivy Hill PTA website here, https://ivyhillpta.org/2018/09/26/reflections-2018/. Projects will be due Monday, October 29.
