• Sunday 12/15 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM Everybody Plays
  • Join us for a fun-filled playdate where kids can enjoy accessible playtime which has been designed with your children’s needs in mind using Mr.Tim’s expertise (D97’s Adapted PE Teacher). This is an inclusive playdate where children with and without disabilities engage in play together. It is our goal to help build relationships between all students. Please note this is not a drop-off activity. In fact, we are hoping this is an opportunity for parents to get to know other Irving parents.  Please RSVP by Friday, December 13th by completing this form: https://forms.gle/LhfYSgMJCGWUJDpM7

The Irving School Cookie Crumble is one of the easiest ways to help our PTO raise money to help our school.  You can help in a few different ways.

Do you love to bake?  Sign up below to make 5 dozen of your specialty cookie/treat and deliver on Friday, December 6th to the office, or Saturday, December 7th (between 8-9am) to the cafeteria.

You don’t bake?  Volunteer your time helping us set up the cookies and boxes, organize, and clean up.

Do you like to eat cookies?  Come to the Cookie Crumble between 9-12am and fill an empty box with homemade cookies for $10.  Come early because we usually sell out within a few hours!
