Indian Peaks Elementary: Moose News

Our 3rd graders kicked off their math unit this week by engineering roller coasters. Students were hard at work making connections between velocity and rounding numbers. A special thank you to Mrs. Trembly for bringing this challenge to students!

A reminder that there is no school from Friday, December 20th to Tuesday, January 7th. Students return to school on Tuesday, January 7th.

There is no Late Start in January.

The Reading Challenge is back!

Students can read books on either MyOn or Sora, two of our online library systems, and have their minutes tracked. Schools with the most minutes read earn a prize that goes towards school needs.

If your student brought their iPad home during the break, please remind them to bring it back fully charged on January 7th. ACCESS Testing starts after the break, which requires that students have their iPad. Thank you for your support and cooperation with this!
