About Indian Hills Elementary
Indian Hills Elementary
Welcome to Indian Hills Elementary, a caring Cougar Community. As a school-wide Title I school, we value our partnerships with parents and families and enjoy working together to help learners achieve their full potential.
We have high expectations of our learners, and we have high expectations of ourselves to help all Indian Hills learners grow into well-rounded citizens and critical thinkers.
Our focus is LEARNING. Each day, your child should be able to answer the following questions:
- What am I learning...?
- Why am I learning this?
- How will I know when I've learned it?
Each Monday, we recognize students for demonstrating learning traits and leadership qualities. Mrs. Jorgensen, our Counselor, discusses the 7 habits of leaders with students in her bi-monthly guidance lessons.
- Be proactive
- Begin with the end in mind
- Put first things first
- Think win-win
- Seek first to understand then to be understood
- Synergize
- Sharpen the saw
- Volunteers are welcome into the school. Meetings with teachers will be after school and by appointment. Please remember your photo ID.
- Attendance is crucial to your child's academic growth and achievement. Supervision on the school grounds begins at 7:30 a.m. Learning begins at 7:55 a.m. School ends at 2:15 p.m., except on Mondays at 1:15 p.m.
- The cafeteria is open at 7:30 a.m. for students who need breakfast and it closes at 7:50 a.m.
- Drop off and pick up students in the two lanes along the front of the school or at the Edson Fichter parking lot.
- After school arrangements should be made before learners come to school. If there is a change of plans, please call the office prior to 1:00 p.m. Bus riders will be put on buses unless we receive a note or phone call from parents
