Indianola is looking ahead to funding for future school years. There is a letter going home with students today to be filled out and returned if a parent or guardian lives on federal land, works on federal land, or works in any kind of federal building. This information is extremely helpful for the amount of federal funding we will receive for the 2026-2027 school year. Please have it returned before the holiday break if possible. A picture of the form will be attached and the pdf can be found in our documents tab on the school website under "Impact Aid".
Just some reminders for the Elementary Christmas program tonight at 6pm. Please have your child to the school by 5:45pm. Pre-k and Kindergarten will meet in their classrooms, all other grades will be in the auditorium. Please do not take your child after their grade preforms, there will be a group song at the end. Pre-k will be the only grade to return to parents after they sing. Students may wear dressy/Christmas clothes for this program.
Christmas with the Choctaw's and Santa. See Flyer for more info.
Indianola Public Schools is proud to recognize the outstanding efforts of three of our teachers—Mrs. Lott, Mrs. Youngblood, and Mrs. Julie Eldridge—who each took the initiative to apply for a Career Tech Grant this year.
Grant writing is a challenging and time-intensive process, requiring dedication, creativity, and a strong commitment to student success. In a district as small as ours, and during a year in which we have faced significant financial challenges, their willingness to go above and beyond their daily responsibilities is especially meaningful.
We extend our sincere appreciation to each of these educators for their hard work and initiative. If you see them, please join us in thanking them for their continued commitment to our students and community.
We are also pleased to announce that Mrs. Lott’s submission was selected for funding, earning this highly competitive award and securing $20,000 for our district. This achievement highlights both the strength of her proposal and the excellence of our instructional programs.
Below, we share the congratulatory letter received from Holly Hannan, FCS State Program Manager, which underscores the competitiveness and significance of this grant award.
