Third-grade STEM students had a visit from special guest, Jessica Simpson. Mrs. Simpson taught the students about life cycles and helped them construct their own caterpillars!
We are beyond blessed to have Mrs. Robin Richardson as the School Counselor at Iva Elementary. She is more than a counselor to our faculty, families, and students. She is a leader, a listening ear, a go-getter, an encourager, and an advocate. She truly wants what is best for our students and works hard to ensure they have the support they need in order to succeed. Her love for our students and her job shines through in all that she does. Please help us show her some love as we celebrate her this week! Thank you Mrs. Richardson for all that you do day in and day out. We love you!

Save the dates! Please join us for our first ever Pancakes and Problem Solving breakfast in March! We will be serving pancakes and you will get to participate in a fun activity with your child. Afterwards, you are welcome to head over to the library to shop the book fair! We will have two fun filled events. On Tuesday, March 7th, we will host our K4-2nd grade families from 7:15 am-8:00 am. On Wednesday, March 8th, we will host our 3rd-5th grade families from 7:15 am-8:00 am. If you have children in each grade level band, you are welcome to attend both events as they will be slightly different and geared toward the appropriate grade level band.
There is no cost, but please RSVP by scanning below or e-mail Mrs. Snider at snidera@acsd3.org by Friday, February 10th so we can plan for enough breakfast and activities. Plan to attend the full 45 minutes for a short presentation at the end. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing you in March!
