IPSF IN THE NEWS

As we kick off the new year, we reflect back on 2019 and some of our biggest stories from the year. We owe our success to the dedication of the entire community to ensure educational excellence in Irvine. We could not do it without you; thank you for your ongoing support! We look forward to the impact we can make together in 2020.

PLANT IT FOR THE PLANET

Each year, IPSF’s Innovative Grants Program provides funding to empower teachers to explore new approaches to teaching and learning. Cadence Park School was awarded a grant last spring to establish a school garden which is already providing students with opportunities for learning to blossom outside of the classroom.

ENRICHMENT DAY REGISTRATION

Mark your calendars! Monday, February 3 is a district-wide school holiday. Plan for your student to spend the day with IPSF at Enrichment Day! Students in grades 2-8 can spend a fun-filled day exploring exciting classes from coding to cooking. The day will run from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Creekside Learning Center. Students may pre-register for four classes in a variety of fun and engaging subjects. Registration and information will be available online January 10.
