Irving Elementary

Fifth grade got the chance to experience a flashchat with a historian from the University of Virginia for Black History Month. Students asked questions about the Civil War and other historical events and people. 5th grade students have been learning about the Underground Railroad, William Still and the Civil War in class with Mrs. McNutt. At the end of the month, students had the opportunity to have a dental screening by a local dentist. They received a free dental kit which included a toothbrush, floss and toothpaste.The two classes are looking forward to attending a field trip to a hockey game after spring break.

Concerts will begin at 7pm, with check-in time by 6:45 at the High School Auditorium.

Students are asked to wear their Irving t-shirt with pants or something close to that.

Irving student council members organized a week of love and kindness at Irving for the week of Valentine's Day. Irving students were given a sweet candy kiss and card to welcome them to school on Monday, February 13th. Teachers were celebrated on Tuesday, students each received a heart on Wednesday to record "Acts of Kindness" they have noticed and then their heart was placed on a kindness tree outside the cafeteria, Thursday was the popular "Fancy Pajama Contest", and students ended the week with showing their VIKING LOVE by wearing blue and white. STUCO reminds everyone to show a little kindness each day, it makes the world a better place to live!

Chloe, Harper, Hadley, Jewly and Seneca. Thank you to everyone who participated!

Irving students with enrollment permission participated in dental screenings generously completed by Watkins Family Dentistry dentist Tony Watkins DDS and hygienist Jordan Blatchford. Every student in the school received a smile kit that included toothpaste, toothbrush and dental floss that was received through a grant application to Delta Dental of Kansas. A sugary drink display was available to classes in the cafeteria for a week to learn about the effects of sugar on oral health and what we can do to promote oral health. Referral letters will be sent home to students identified as having dental needs. Please contact the school nurse Felicia at 620-221-5199 for any assistance you may need.

Each classroom had a different habitat, they researched their animal, and worked from real images of their animal trying to get it as realistic in color and shape as possible.

Art ready to be displayed in the district art show at the Arts and Humanities at Baden Square from March 2nd-March 30th. Open during normal business hours.

Below is a sampling of the 300 MINI WORKS OF ART trading cards Irving students will be sending to OHIO to trade with students from around the world. Last year we received art from 5 different states. This year we have our fingers crossed to receive something from another country!
