Parents of Iroquois students in grades 6-12:
Last week you should have received a letter about Satchel One notifications. With the letter, there were QR codes for each of your students. Please sign up for the notifications from Satchel One so you can keep up to date with your students. These will be the primary way you are notified about detentions for minor incidents.
Read-a-Thon pajama day and extra snack time coupons were redeemed yesterday. For extra snack time they could choose between an orange float, root beer float or a sundae!
