Orientation Information 25-26 School Year
IVES Kindergarten Required Family Orientation, August 1st
(Attendance will be taken and recorded)
Inspiration View Elementary is excited to welcome our incoming Kindergarten students and families the opportunity to come to school on August 1st. This is a district required attendance date and attendance will be tracked.
For Kindergarten students, we will offer two timeframes that you may chose from (you only need to sign up for ONE time slot). The time frames that are available will be 8:00-10:00 a.m. and 10:30-12:30 p.m.. On a regular school day, an optional breakfast is served at 8:10am and lunch is regularly served at 10:30am. Should you chose the 8-10 timeframe, *your IVES student will have the opportunity to experience breakfast in the Gallery if they would like to try the breakfast option (optional). The 10:30-12:30 group will have the opportunity to experience lunch in the gallery (*your IVES student only). Feel free to pack your IVES student their own cold lunch if they would not like to partake in the school lunch option. These time slots are limited and may fill up quickly. *Siblings are welcome to attend under your care but, due to availability, will not be able to participate in breakfast or lunch. Thank you for your understanding.
During your designated time slot, you will bring your child to school, learn about the meal process, stay with your child through the classroom teacher orientation to help put their supplies away and learn about the classroom (should you need to, feel free to leave after the teacher orientation and return at the end of the 2 hour session). The sessions will conclude with time for students to learn about the playground expectations. Please be back in your child's classroom at the end of each session (10:00am or 12:30pm) to pick up your child. Thank you!
