International Dot Day was spot on at Park! Our students had a blast today celebrating creativity, courage, and collaboration! From colorful dot art projects to inspiring stories, we embraced the power of making our mark. Just like a single dot can start a masterpiece, each student’s creativity adds something special to our school community. #WeAreMG

A short message from Andy Brown, our K-12 Student Success and Technology Integration Director.
We are reaching out to inform you about a new Indiana state requirement affecting attendance for students in grades K-6 along with guidelines for all students K-12.
Starting this school year, if a student accumulates 5 unexcused absences within a 10-week period, the school is required to implement an Attendance Intervention Plan. This plan is designed to work collaboratively with families to address and improve student attendance, ensuring that all students have the opportunity to succeed academically.
Attached is a document outlining the differences in excused, unexcused, and parent verified absences. We encourage you to review it carefully and reach out to us with any questions or concerns.
Your involvement in your child’s education is vital, and we look forward to working together to ensure their success.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
Students in Mrs. Ferguson's room at Park Elementary recently made macaroni and cheese. What a fun activity to do with our peers!
