will be held on Friday, May 31, 2013!
We need the help of all of our Irving families to make this a success! All year our Irving staff work hard to ensure our children receive the best education possible so please help us thank the staff with this small token of our appreciation for all they do. Last year’s luncheon was a big hit, so let’s see if we can make this year’s luncheon even better!
Please download the Staff Appreciation Volunteer & Donation Form, fill it out with how you can help, and return it to your child's homeroom teacher by Tuesday, May 28, 2013!
The Roslindale Youth Arts Festival
Saturday, June 1, 2013 10:00 am -1:00 pm
at the BCYF Roslindale Community Center
Students from the Roslindale K-8 Pathway elementary and middle schools will exhibit artwork and perform. There will be a brief presentation and music performances at 10:15am.
Last year over 300 people attended including Mayor Menino, Dr. Carol Johnson, Ayanna Pressley and other school and city officials. We hope you will join us in supporting our students!
The Arts Festival coincides with the opening of the Roslindale Farmers' Market, so after checking out our students wonderful artwork you may want to head over to Adams Park to pick up some fresh produce and other items!
We still need parent and student volunteers to help pass out flyers and direct people the day of the event! If you, or anyone you know is interested in volunteering for an hour or two please email: Nicole Murray, Director of School Partnership Program
The Eliot School of Fine & Applied Arts.

Did you know that our sixth grade students experienced 29% increase in growth in Math on the 2012 MCAS during our pilot Extended Learning Time (ElT) program last year?
Now we are using the i3 Federal Grant we were awarded in February 2012 to provide extended time for all of our students! Extended Time gives students top-flight instruction from 7:20-4:15 Monday through Thursday and 7:20-11:40 on Fridays.

If you are interested in a tour of the Irving Middle School, please contact us at (617)635-8072.
We know that parents feel that some of the most valuable information they can receive about a school is from what current and past parents have to say about the school, so please feel free to contact our Irving Middle School Parents via email: Karen Kast-McBride or Kim Masterson - they also have a list of other parents you may want to speak with.
As the parent of a child who attends the Irving you are automatically a member of the Parent Council. In addition to the items above we will hold parent council elections, discuss plans for the upcoming year and want to hear your feedback. The Parent Council is your voice at the school whether what you have to say is good, bad, an issue or suggestions for improvement.

Donations are always welcome and can be made either through the Paypal button below with your credit card or with a check made out to the Irving Middle School and mailed to us.
I would like to make a donation to the Irving Middle School!
