USC and IES Partner Together for The 2024 Healthy School and Summer Study
Dear Parents,
The University of South Carolina is inviting more families to join the over 700 families already participating in the Healthy School and Summer Study for 2024.
This project is open to all 5th-7th grade students.
If you signed up last year you DO NOT need to sign up again.
Participants will wear a Fitbit-like activity watch for two weeks and parents will complete online surveys during the following two time periods:
- April 2024 for 2 weeks
- July 2024 for 2 weeks
Participants can earn up to $290 in gift cards for completing the measures ($145 each 2-week period).

5th Grade Yearbook Dedications
Dear 5th Grade Families,
The Irmo Elementary School yearbook features a 5th Grade Dedication section highlighting and celebrating the growth and success of our graduating bees. If you would like to include a picture/dedication for your child, please click the link here.
The cost is $30 per dedication and must be paid online using the Student QuickPay account. Once we have your completed Google Form, the fee will be added to your child's account. The link to pay is also included on the form above.
Pictures may be sent in an envelope (care of Lindsay Barrack) to be scanned and returned or they may be emailed to Ms. Barrack at lbarrack@lexrich5.org. If emailed, you will receive a response to ensure it was received. Pictures may be cropped to make sure both picture and text fit in the business card-sized space. Due to the small formatting, we ask that you follow the guidelines of keeping your message under 75 words, and submit only ONE photo.
All materials are due by 3pm on February 2, 2024. This is a HARD deadline. We cannot accept any late submissions after this date.
The deadline for yearbook purchase is March 1st! Don't miss out on the memories!
