Year of Awesome Events:
As part of our Year of Awesome, Iron Horse staff and students will give back to our community in different ways each month. We will be sending out an update before each month to let you know what our monthly school focus is and how you can help support this effort.
In October, we would like to give back to those who are less fortunate in our state. We are calling our drive Socktober. During the month of October, we will be collecting new, unused pairs of socks to give to students in need. Please drop off your pairs of new, unused socks in your child's classroom. The classroom that has donated the most socks will win a special classroom party hosted by Mrs. Wyoming America, Erica Pederson. Thank you for supporting our efforts!
Red Ribbon Week October 3-6:
Please complete this form to give permission for your child to participate in our helicopter landing.
We are pledging to be drug free at Iron Horse. In support of these efforts, we will have 4 spirit days to encourage our students to remain drug-free. These days were determined by our Student Leadership Council, which consists of 5th grade students making a difference in our school.
