Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),<br />
Welcome to December! We hosted our “Songs <strong>of</strong> the Seasons” music<br />
program December 1 st , <strong>20</strong>11 presented by our very own K4-2 nd grade ICS<br />
students to a full house. They performed seasonal & cultural songs. It was a<br />
beautiful performance. Great job everyone!<br />
I wanted to take this opportunity to remind everyone <strong>of</strong> the school’s policy<br />
regarding medications in school. We recently have had quite a few students<br />
transporting medication to school.<br />
According to the <strong>20</strong>11-<strong>20</strong><strong>12</strong> Parent Student Handbook on page 31 it states:<br />
Medications:<br />
The <strong>School</strong> Nurse will supervise the medication administration program at the<br />
school, including monitoring and training school designated staff in the<br />
administration <strong>of</strong> medications. Whenever possible all medications should be<br />
administered before or after the students attends school.<br />
However, when necessary, prescription or non-prescription medications will only<br />
be administered under the following procedure.<br />
All prescription and all non-prescription medication require:<br />
1. Licensed Health Care Prescriber signed statement listing the conditions and<br />
circumstances for administering the medication, the prescribed dosage, frequency<br />
<strong>of</strong> administration.<br />
2. Student’s Parent/guardian/legal custodian signed consent.<br />
3. Parents/guardians/legal custodians are responsible for delivering adequate<br />
amounts <strong>of</strong> the correct medication in properly labeled containers to the school.<br />
Children are not to bring medication to school.<br />
4. All medications must be in an original package with the original label.<br />
5. The <strong>School</strong> will require a separate <strong>Indian</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>School</strong> 24 hour<br />
mediation consent form for overnight field trips that is provided by the student’s<br />
teacher.<br />
As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us here at school.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Amy Tromp<br />
Principal

Winter is slowly sneaking up on us. Please help your child dress appropriately for this time <strong>of</strong><br />
season.<br />
This is what the school follows regarding appropriate attire for outside for grades K4-6 th grade:<br />
For morning recess, if the temperature is below 50 degrees, students should have a warm enough<br />
jacket on or multiple layers, such as two sweatshirts to go outside for recess. If a student wears<br />
shorts and the temperature is below 50 degrees, students will not be allowed to go outside for<br />
recess either. If they are not properly dressed, they will remain in the cafeteria during recess.<br />
For afternoon recess, if the temperature is below 50 degrees, students should have a warm enough<br />
jacket on or multiple layers, such as two sweatshirts to go outside for recess. If a student wears<br />
shorts and the temperature is below 50 degrees, students will not be allowed to go outside for<br />
recess either.<br />
For our students in 7 th & 8 th grade:<br />
Parents <strong>of</strong> 7 th & 8 th grade students please assist your child/children in reminding them to bring<br />
appropriate outdoor attire to school.<br />
All students grades K4 -8 th grade should not be wearing jackets or what they consider their<br />
outdoor wear in school unless traveling to or from outside.<br />
Also, note that slippers and pajama pants are viewed as inappropriate school attire.
<strong>Indian</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>School</strong> Room Parent Program<br />
We are excited to begin our “Room Parent” Program here at ICS. This year we have<br />
several parents who have agreed to be “Room Parents”. A “Room Parent” will be a<br />
leader in the classroom and will be the liaison between the teachers and other parents in<br />
the classroom. They will work with the teacher in finding out what the teacher’s needs<br />
are and will help get other parents from their classroom involved as well. These parents<br />
have had several hours <strong>of</strong> training and are ready to get busy. Their first assignment is to<br />
contact those families from their assigned classroom and introduce themselves. They will<br />
also be requesting families to give them their contact information so they may contact<br />
families from their classrooms to relay important information or to ask for assistance on<br />
activities/projects for the teacher. Please consider giving your information so that you<br />
will be included in all that will be happening.<br />
