Good Afternoon Ivy Hall Families,

Thank you for joining us for Family Educator Conferences this past week. We hope that having the option of an in-person conference or a virtual conference made it easier for you to meet with your child’s teacher to learn about their progress this school year.  As a reminder, there is no school on Monday, October 9th.  We look forward to seeing the students back at school Tuesday morning.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Mike Senatore

Our Halloween festivities will be here before we know it.  We look forward to students dressing in their Halloween costumes for our Halloween Parade and classroom parties on Tuesday, Oct. 31st.  Please help us with the following costume guidelines. Students will change into their costumes after their lunch period at school. Please ensure that your child can get the costume on with no or minimal help.  

Costumes must be appropriate for school.  If costumes are not school-appropriate the student will be asked to remove their costume.

Please no masks, blood, super scary stuff, general ickiness, or weapons

Please no cigars or cigarette items

Please no bare tummies

Please keep hair coloring and make-up simple

REPEAT *Safety Patrol*

Calling 5th Grade student leaders! In this club, 5th grade students will be responsible for monitoring the hallways for expected behaviors before and after school. They will be leaders in the building and will be expected to communicate with Ivy Hall staff to ensure everyone’s safety.
