February really flew by! We loved celebrating African American trailblazers throughout the month. Our culminating assembly was a highlight, as students proudly showcased the influential figures they studied during Module 3 of Arts and Letters. We are so proud of the learning and leadership they demonstrated.

March will be just as busy, so please mark your calendars:

📅 Tuesday, March 3 – Teacher Workday (No School)

⏰ Friday, March 6 – Early Dismissal (12:00 PM)

Dear Families,

This week, our school community will focus on the character strength of Love of Learning. Love of learning means enjoying the process of learning new things, whether in school or on your own.

People with a love of learning are motivated because they find joy in learning itself, not just for rewards like grades or prizes. They are driven by the excitement of discovering and mastering new skills.

Developing a love of learning is important for students because it helps them stay motivated and engaged. It can also improve their mental and physical well-being as they take pride in overcoming challenges and growing.

To practice and encourage the character strength of Love of Learning at home, please visit The Positivity Project’s mobile-friendly P2 for Families (available in English and Spanish), where you will watch a video together and discuss a quote and three questions. Below are links to this week’s P2 for Families lessons. Click on the grade level that best meets your child’s needs.

Thank you for your support!

Dear Irvin Families,

As school counselors we want to take a moment to share how we support students through age-appropriate learning and to highlight an exciting event coming up soon.

We often talk with students about making safe and responsible choices online. Families play a key role in helping children navigate technology in age-appropriate ways. We encourage parents and caregivers to regularly monitor apps, games, and social media use, set clear screen-time limits, and have ongoing conversations about online behavior, privacy, and digital kindness. What children see and experience online can impact their emotional well-being, peer relationships, and learning. Modeling healthy technology habits and keeping communication open can help students build strong digital citizenship skills.

The application for 26-27 NCPK is now open.

This is a wonderful opportunity for families to give their child a strong start in a nurturing and engaging environment. 💛

Please help us spread the word! Families can call the number listed on the flyer below to check eligibility.

Let’s work together to fill this classroom with future Eagles! 🦅
