Welcome from Mr. Hiley
Dear IG Families:
Next week we are looking forward to our second grade concert. With the theme being "Pajama Party," we are inviting the whole school to wear pajamas for the day - May 23.
Thank you to Miss Carrozziere for coordinating another Scholastic Book Fair before the end of the year. We are sharing some details below, so be sure to check them out. The spring book fair will run from June 2 to June 9 in the Ivan Green library.
We practiced our final lockdown drills of the school year this week.
We sure hope to see you at our FreeMarket this weekend - tomorrow from 9:00-2:00 right here at Ivan Green!
Sincerely,
Lucas Hiley. Ed.D.
Principal

Second Grade Concert
Scholastic Book Fair
Get Ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way (YAY!). Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them to become Bolder, Prouder, and Stronger Readers. AND—as always—every book they buy earns rewards for our school.
Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from June 2nd-June 9th during your child’s library special, in the library.
This year, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account.
Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Cash however, will still be accepted as well.
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping:

The countdown to more Book joy is on! Catch you at the Fair!

A Peek at Our Week
May DEI Meeting: Previewing Our New Elementary ELA Curriculum
Next Meeting: May 24 at Laurelton Pardee
East Irondequoit's educators believe that literacy is a fundamental human right and the gateway to learning and lifelong success. That's why East Irondequoit will be implementing a new elementary ELA curriculum starting in the Fall of 2023. In this May 24 session you will have the opportunity to learn how and why this curriculum was selected and will engage in a process to analyze its cultural responsiveness. You will have the opportunity to discuss the curriculum with teachers who were early adopters and learn about its impact. If you're a parent, you will learn more about how to support your child's literacy development at home. The meeting will be from 4:30 to 6 p.m. in the Laurelton-Pardee Cafeteria. If you are planning to attend, please register here: https://forms.office.com/r/YVCiBLmc8B
