Good Evening IHE Parents,
NLRSD will begin Virtual/Flex Fridays for students beginning October 23, 2020. Your child’s teacher will be sending you a weekly survey asking if your child will be in attendance Friday. Please make every effort to complete this survey each week. We need to make sure that we have adequate numbers to prepare breakfast and lunch for students. We also need to know who we will need to send breakfast/lunch as well as review packets home with on Thursdays.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the building administrators, Dr. Shanda Coleman, colemans@nlrsd.org, and Mr. Joseph Brown, brownjo@nlrsd.org.
We have attached links to our IHE Virtual Friday schedule and building plan. Our IHE staff has worked very hard to create a plan that will benefit our students and provide time for staff to plan lessons, conference with parents, record lessons, work 1:1 with select students, etc.

Indian Hills Elementary
The District has announced that Fridays in the 2nd Quarter will be Virtual Learning Fridays. At Indian Hills, we are currently working on a detailed plan to share with families. To help us plan for those Fridays, it would help us if we had an idea of how many children would be on campus. If your child(ren) attends school face-to-face at Indian Hills, please answer the following questions to help us better meet the needs of our students.
Students will have the opportunity to review previously assigned activities, make up assignments, or to work in digital platforms such as Edgenuity and Waterford that will address missing Standards due to last year’s extended school closure.
Please follow the survey link to provide important information regarding virtual Fridays.

October is Dyslexia Awareness Month. The North Little Rock School District is recognizing this month with a series of initiatives to make our students and families aware of dyslexia and the services that we provide.
https://tinyurl.com/y5fvw4mr
We have been approved to have Virtual Learning Fridays! This will begin on 10/23.
In summary, attending school on Fridays is optional. Students enrolled in face-to-face instruction will have the option of completing assignments either in person or at home. Virtual students will complete assignments as normal. These assignments will be completed asynchronously, which means there will be no live instruction. No new material will be introduced. Attendance will still be taken.
