Tokyo Joe's Night Tonight:
Please join us for our February restaurant night at Tokyo Joe's tonight from 4:00-8:30pm. When you mention Iron Horse upon ordering, we will receive 25% of the order total back (this does not apply to online orders). This is a great way to support Iron Horse and have a great dinner!

We are SO proud of both of our battle teams for making it into the quarterfinals! Teams will battle next week on Monday, February 25th (3/4) and Wednesday, February 27th (5). We hope that you can join us in cheering for our wonderful students!

News from PE:
Thank you Iron Horse families for your participation in our Kids Heart Challenge fundraiser for the American Heart Association. This year our school was able to raise $13,094! This money will help fund heart disease and stroke research, and help to teach people life saving CPR. If your student has earned additional thank you gifts we expect to have them available to distribute by the end of March, thank you for your patience.
In Health,
Rachel Perkins
