Car Rider Line Procedures and Safety Reminders - Please Read!

  • Please Remain in your vehicle at all times! A staff member will assist the student with exiting and entering the vehicle when necessary.
  • NEVER pull out and attempt to pass other vehicles anywhere in line with the exception of the "Circle".
  • Please do not pull in to a vacant spot to collect your student. The line moves quickly. backing out of a spot is a safety hazard and causes delays to the entire line.
  • Have your Hang Tag with your child's name visible. This helps to expedite the process. Need a new tag? Let a staff member know.
Are you in the BRAVE Giving Spirit?
The IHHS Red Cross Club is sponsoring a Holiday Toy Drive! If your family would like to help to provide a Joyous Holiday for a local child in need, please bring an unwrapped gift to the Elementary School. The drive will run until Thursday December 15.
December 12-16
Winter Break is fast approaching! IHES will be having some fun during our last week together with a different "winter" theme for each day. Check out the schedule below!
IHES "KWC" Coat Drive
December 5-16
Kids Who Care (an IHES student service club) has organized a Winter Coat Drive to benefit Inter Parish Ministries of Newtown. IPM provides warm weather gear to community members in need. Donations of new or gently used coats, gloves or mittens (for adults and children) will be graciously accepted. We will have boxes set up for Donations in the front office beginning December 5.
As always, thanks for your generosity!

December Wellness Wednesday
This week we will have an extended opportunity to listen to the book Sweep by Louise Greig. We will talk about moods and how they can, at times, sweep up our day. Our feelings are never “wrong” and many times extenuating circumstances can affect us greatly. We also will discuss strategies that we can use to reframe our thinking and look for positives in order to build resiliency. We hope a conversation can carry over to home! If you are having a “bad” day, how do you move forward? What helps you? Share with your child!

Would you like to read about more strategies?
Our Lost and Found will be donated after Winter Break!
Is your child missing a jacket, their lunchbox, or any other miscellaneous item? Chances are it is in our Lost and Found Bin located just outside our front entrance! Feel free to come by to check and see if you can reunite your child with their belongings! All unclaimed Lost and Found items will be donated during Winter Break.
