Dear IPS Families,      Once again, our IPS Eagles were soaring last month. The cafeteria was full of Veterans, parents and community members as our students honored our Veterans through songs, essays and pictures. We were thankful to celebrate our Terrific Kids for the month of November for being “generous.” Mrs. Chandler and I enjoyed making Positive Behavior phone calls to parents each Monday. Instruction in classrooms has continued to focus on reading multiple texts and making comparisons. A good way to reinforce this in your children is to have them read for 30 minutes every night. Students are also striving to master their basic facts of addition and subtraction for the lower grades and multiplication and division for the upper grades. I cannot stress enough how important it is for students to have their basic facts memorized. Knowing these facts improves accuracy and fluency necessary for solving higher level word problems. You can easily make flashcards with your child, have them set a goal and mark their progress nightly. Contact your child’s teacher for other ideas on how to help memorize those basic facts. Thank you for your continued support. By working as a team, we can ensure that your child has a successful year. Happy Holidays to you and your family! Sincerely, Kay Harper, Principal

Teacher and Support Person of the Year
