This is Goria Painter, the Assistant Principal at Iotla Valley Elementary. I am calling with some important information for this week.
On Monday and Tuesday, our Choir Club will meet at the end of the school day.
The 3rd Grade BOG Test will take place on Wednesday, September 10th. Please encourage your student to do their very best. Getting a good night's sleep and eating a well-balanced breakfast will ensure their minds are ready to focus.
If your student is a bus rider in the mornings or afternoons, please make sure the driver has received your completed yellow Bus Rider Information card. These cards are essential for keeping track of our riders and our drivers' routes. These are due to the bus driver by this Friday, September 12th.
If you are using our car rider line in the morning for drop-off, please make sure to use both lanes. This helps prevent cars and buses from backing up into the street.
If you are picking up your student early or making other arrangements for their transportation in the afternoon, please notify the school of these changes before 2:15. Afternoons are very busy, and we want to ensure that all students arrive home safely.
If you or other family members are visiting for lunch, please notify the teacher or front office staff a day in advance. This helps us know who our visitors are and allows our cafeteria staff to prepare for visitors in the lunchroom.
Moonpie sales have been extended to September 15th.
Wolf Pack Mania will take place on September 19th from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m.
Picture Day is September 29th.
Attendance information - We must reconsider absenteeism not merely as non-compliance with school regulations, but as missed opportunities for learning within the classroom environment.
We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.


La venta de recaudación de fondos de Moonpie se extendió hasta el 15 de septiembre.









This is Gloria Painter, the Assistant Principal at Iotla Valley Elementary. I am calling with some important announcements.
Unfortunately, bus 23 will not run until further notice. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you are interested in obtaining your bus licences, please reach out to Ms. Bell or me.
Iotla Valley T-Shirt, Hat, and Yearbook forms have been sent home. Please return these as soon as possible. If you would like to order the yearbook online, the site will be available soon.
This is a reminder that SMINCELS are on sale. Students can see Ms. Brooks in the mornings before classes begin. They are $2 each or $5 for 3. This is a fundraiser for our field day at the end of the school year.
Moon Pie orders are due by September 8th.
Attendance information- Missing 10%, or about 2 days each month over the course of a school year, can make it harder to learn and read.
We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.

This school year, we will be celebrating prefect weekly attendance. At the end of each week, students who have been to school every day will be entered into a weekly drawing for a special prize on Friday afternoons. Look for our social media and website for our post celebrating these students.

Look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.
