Jog-a-thon Water Day Celebration

Thank you to all the staff and volunteers who made Jog-a-thon celebration memorable for our kids!

Special Thanks to Coach Reed of 'Lil Sports. https://www.lilsportsandfitness.com/ He has donated his time and equipment to support Field Day and other special events here at Indialantic for years. He has been here at least twice a year for the last few years running.

Many of our kids are already familiar with Coach Reed and his preschool sports classes. A fun way to introduce mainstream sports, locomotor skills, and cooperative play. His Ninja warrior courses are also a big hit. He does a lot of homeschool PE classes, birthday parties, and other special events.

If you see him around town, please thank him for all he does for our school and our kids.

Sign Up for Parent Lunch

We are excited to be offering this two days a week for the remainder of the school year. Parents may select a day, Tuesday or Friday, to come and have lunch with their child. Be sure to arrive a few minutes prior to your child's lunch time. Parents must have their ID (Driver's License or other approved forms of ID and will sign in through the office. Students will need to return to class at the regularly scheduled time. We request parents do not check out their child on Fridays at the end of the lunch period. Due to limited space, it is important parents sign up if they would like to come and have lunch with their child.

Parental involvement is so important to the success of Indialantic Elementary!
