The 2nd Annual Irving Gala & Fundraiser, held Friday night, March 23, 2012 was another great success! This year's Gala was a wonderful night with even more auction and raffle items, fun and entertainment than last year, so be sure to check out the pictures and videos we took (and if you have some from the event, please contact us!)
We could not have done so well without all the companies and individuals who donated and worked to make it such an awesome evening and of course, all of YOU who came out and shared the evening with us!!! So, let us just say THANK YOU!!!
We will be updating the Community and Sponsor Pages over April School Recess, so be sure to visit our Community Pages after April vacation! THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR AMAZING GENEROSITY!
Irving Awarded i3 Grant to Expand School Day!
At the February 1, 2012 Boston School Committee Meeting, Superintendent Carol Johnson announced that the Irving and McCormack Middle schools were chosen as the recipients of a highly competitive federally funded $3.5 million dollar grant to expand the school day. BPS Press Release.
For the Irving this means that our 6th grade pilot Extended Learning Time program started in September 2011 will continue and with this grant we will be able to extend the school day for all students through 8th grade!
The Irving's application for the i3 grant outlined how the funding would help us to further enhance both academic and enrichment opportunites to improve success for our students. Planning is already under way to structure and organize the ELT time and we will be asking for input from our current Irving families and Roslindale K-8 Pathway community in a number of ways within the next two months, so please check your child's backpack and this website often.
It is BPS School Choice Time!
Round Two registration for the next school year is Feb. 8-Mar. 23
