Irving PTO Meeting 9/7 at 7:30 PM

Our first PTO meeting is Thursday 9/7 at 7:30 PM and you don’t want to miss it!
We are trying out a new shorter meeting structure this year, and after a few updates about what’s happening at school this fall Ms. Mura agreed to do an “Ask Me Anything!” This is a chance to ask any burning question you may have about Irving or how things are run! Feel free tune in and ask live or send me any questions I can read at the meeting. (Here or to admin@IrvingPTO.com)

2023 Eagle Extras is coming!

Eagle Extras is the PTO organized after school enrichment program offered for Irving students. We will be offering a variety of great classes this Fall from a theater class that will perform Schoolhouse Rock! to Mandala making, TV News making to LEGO building, and lots lots more! The Fall session will run September 26-December 15, 2023. The classes take place right after school so there is no extra work on your part to get your kids to another location to try something new. 

How great is that?! Stay tuned for more information on classes and registration. 

When that info is available it will be posted right here.

Late registrations will not be accepted. The parent volunteers need time to assemble class rosters for the on-site coordinators, teachers, instructors and office staff. We are not able to accommodate changes in the schedule after the registration period is over. Questions? Please contact eagleextras@irvingpto.com.

Logistics. For those children enrolled in Eagle Extras, they will be directed to go to the auditorium at the end of the school day by their teachers (you do not need to come to the school to take them to this class) where they will wait with supervision to be picked up by their Eagle Extras teacher. We help the Kindergartners get to the auditorium the first week. Kids enrolled in the afterschool programs of Hephzibah or Oak Park Friends School can participate in Eagle Extras and just need to check in with their respective programs before going to the Eagle Extras class. For kids in other after school programs, you need to check with those programs directly to see if they can make accommodations to pick up your child once their Eagle Extras class is over.

Limited Space/Waitlist: Space is limited and classes are filled on a first come first serve basis. Please register early to reserve your child’s spot in the class(es).  Also please don’t hesitate to utilize the wait list option if a class is showing as full when you try to enroll. We will do our best to accommodate all interested.

Cancellations: Classes with an outdoor component may be canceled due to inclement weather.  Please be advised that efforts will be made to make up the missed time when feasible. Refunds will not be issued for classes cancelled due to weather. Classes that have to be canceled due to an instructor emergency or illness will be handled on a case by case basis.

Scholarships are available! If your child qualifies for free/reduced lunch you are eligible for one scholarship per session per child. If your child does not currently qualify for free/reduced lunch, but you have a financial hardship making it difficult to pay for a class, there are additional funds available for these circumstances as well.

  • Free/Reduced Lunch: If you already have qualified for free/reduced lunch, watch your email for a note from Ms. Mura with a list of codes that will enable you to sign up for a class for free. While these codes you receive will work on all classes, your student is only eligible for one class per session. If you have more than one student at Irving, each student is eligible for one class per session. Please do not use the codes to enroll in more than one class per session.
  • Not qualified for Free/Reduced Lunch, but have a financial hardship? If you are in need of financial help and are not currently qualified for free/reduced lunch, please email Ms. Mura, smura@op97.org, requesting a scholarship so she can get you the assistance needed to register your child.

Payment Plans! When you are registering you can elect to participate in a payment plan at no additional cost to you! Hooray!
