Thursday Folder Fliers
Parking Lot:
As you are dropping off or picking up students, please pull all the way forward. Students who are waiting for you will walk to your car. This helps to facilitate our line and get everyone on their way in a timely manner. Please DO NOT ask your student to cross within the parking lot and come to your car! They will be stopped, as we do not allow students in the parking lots without a parent/guardian/sibling over 18. Please also note that students can arrive anytime between 8:20 and 8:37. Students are not late until the 8:37 bell rings.
Traffic Lights Around Iron Horse:
There has been an increase in traffic violations and cars blocking intersections at Hilltop and Tallman, as well as Tallman and Club. Please respect the traffic laws and DO NOT block the intersections or crosswalks. This causes safety issues with students and staff who are crossing the road, as well as causing traffic back ups. Please wait to turn until cars have cleared these areas. Parker Police have been informed of the situation and will be monitoring the area.
Lending Library:
Please feel free to utilize our lending library located outside of our front doors. This is based on an honor system: take a book, leave a book. We want to encourage everyone to join us in celebrating reading and literacy!
Iron Horse Spirit Day:
Every Friday is Iron Horse Spirit Day! Please have your child wear their Iron Horse gear. If your child does not have a shirt to wear, PTO will have order forms available at the Open House tonight and during our Assessment Day.
The historic solar eclipse occurred on Monday. Students had a great time viewing the eclipse with their special glasses. |
Please read this letter from our district nurse: Letter to Parents. Vision and Hearing Screenings will take place on September 5th and 6th.
Swirls Day:
