December at IES!

December is here, and we have a month full of learning, celebrations, and winter fun at Iroquois Elementary School! Below are a few important reminders for families, with full details available in the links at the bottom.

Key Reminders

Dismissal Changes: Please call the office before 2:30 PM for any end-of-day changes.
Outdoor Recess: Students go outside if the real-feel temperature is above 20°F. Please send warm clothing, and consider placing an extra set of clothes in backpacks for snowy or wet days.
Winter Attendance: Consistent attendance helps students stay on track during a busy season. Encourage healthy habits, warm clothing, rest, and handwashing.

Additional Notes

  • Our “Relax for Snacks” December program helps students practice calming strategies before the holiday rush.

  • Families can join in with our 7 Habits at Home weekly activities throughout the month.
