Green Team Needs Supplies

The Irving GREEN TEAM is gearing up for it’s annual Mother’s Day flower sale and NEEDS your CLEAN Yogurt cups and butter tubs (small).  Please send clean yogurt cups (wide at the top-not Yoplait) and butter tubs to the office in care of the GREEN TEAM and they will be used for “pots” for flowers that students can purchase for a loved one next week before Mother’s Day.  We will be potting flowers next TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY so please send containers before then.

Thanks, the Irving Green Team

Irving Online Book Fair
We just wanted to thank everyone on behalf of the Irving Book Fair! Over 96 books were purchased from our teachers’ wish lists to help expand their classroom libraries.
The physical book sale is over, but our online Irving Book Fair continues until May 8th with a much larger catalog of books to choose from!  All books will be shipped free of charge to the school when the sale is done, and we will deliver them to the classrooms. If you missed out on grabbing a copy of Ranger In Time, Plants Vs Zombies Timepocalypse, or The Day the Crayons Quit when we ran out, here’s your chance to get one. It’s also a great way to get some end of the year teacher gifts.  Profits from the online sale get added to our physical sale’s total, allowing us to get some growth bonuses and earn more money for our library!
The online sale can be accessed at :
