Communication Types

eNotify

These emails, text messages, and/or phone calls will provide you with important time-sensitive information that families must know. For example, an eNotify communication is used to send an email to specific families whose students are going on a field trip.

News You Choose

Each week, families will receive a News You Choose newsletter from us - this newsletter will include important upcoming dates, school information, after school activities, and PTA news. This is the main form of communication to our families, we hope you will find it helpful and informative! 

ParentVue/StudentVue

Throughout the school year, these two tools are the best way for families to monitor student progress. Available through these “Vue’s” are student’s grades, attendance, class syllabi, class calendars, and discipline information. We are offering two sessions (7:45 AM and 7:00 PM) on Tuesday, September 10, to help parents/guardians become familiar with this tool as well as Google Classroom.

Email

Families will receive emails from staff throughout the school year and you are welcome to email administration, counselors, teachers, and staff throughout the school year as questions and needs arise. Please note we do our very best to respond within 24 hours of receiving an email. 

Twitter

Both Irving Middle School and Mrs. Conley have Twitter accounts. We post pictures of what is happening in the school as well as quick updates and reminders. We highly recommend you join Twitter and follow both! @IrvingMiddle and @WIMSPrincipal


Upcoming Communication

On Tuesday, August 6, you will receive an eNotify message with all of the links and information that you will need to prepare for the Open House and New Student Orientation. If you do not receive the email, please call the school to ensure we have the correct email address for you.
