The Indianola Community School District welcomes the 2011-12 Purple and Gold Preschool and
kindergarten classes. If you have a child who will be four years of age (preschool) or five years of age
(kindergarten) on or before September 15, 2011, please plan to attend registration on Monday, January 17, at
7:00 PM at Indianola High School. The evening will begin with an informational session in the high school
auditorium followed by registration in the cafeteria directly across from the auditorium. January 24 is the
make-up date if registration is postponed due to inclement weather.
The Indianola Community School District has four elementary attendance centers: Emerson, Irving, Whittier
and Laura Ingalls Wilder. The district offers a full-day kindergarten program. Two calendar choices—
Traditional and Year-Round Education (YRE)—will be offered. The year-round program is open to all
district students and is located at Irving Elementary. Information regarding both calendar options will be
shared during Kindergarten registration.
Purple and Gold Preschool is currently offered at Whittier Elementary. This program offers morning and
afternoon sessions five days a week.
We strongly encourage all parents to attend the registration so we are able to prepare for your child’s arrival
next fall. Registration packets can be picked up at Emerson, Irving, Whittier and Wilder beginning Monday,
December 13, during school hours.
Parents need to bring the child’s original birth certificate, a copy of immunization records and proof
of dental screening and blood lead testing to registration on January 17.
NOTE FROM THE NURSE: Students will need to stay home until they are
fever, vomiting, diarrhea free for 24 hours. If diagnosed with strep they
have been on antibotics for 24 hours. This is for their owen welfare as
well as other students and school staff.
Students can begin arriving after 8:00 AM each morning. Breakfast is
served from 8:00 – 8:20 AM.
Please call the school at 961-9540 by 8:20 in the morning when your
child will be absent or tardy. Use extension 0 to reach the main office or

Iowa School Alerts
The Indianola Community School District has signed up to take part in a new notification system
offered by the State of Iowa called ―Iowa School Alerts. This program gives parents, the media and
others the opportunity to sign up to receive e-mail notifications directly when we have cancelled
classes, or will be dismissing early or starting late due to weather or other factors. This service, which
was developed by IT staff at the Department of Administrative Services, is free of charge to you and
the school. The State funded the development of this program through the IOWAccess initiative, which
seeks to bring more e-government services to the people of Iowa. And because the system is funded and
operated by the state, you can be assured that your e-mail addresses will not be sold to anyone and you
will not receive advertisements or spam due to enrolling in the program.
Here’s how you can take advantage of this free service & sign up for e-mail alerts:
1. Click on ―Sign Up! in the Main Menu at https://schoolalerts.iowa.gov. This will take you to the
―Enterprise A&A screen for the State of Iowa. If you already have an account with the State (say, for
another online application), there’s no need to create another one.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions to enter your name and e-mail address, and create secret questions
and your password. This step involves obtaining a code from an e-mail sent to you to confirm your
registration.
3. Once you have created and confirmed your account registration, you will be taken back to the School
Alerts site where you can click on ―My Subscriptions to add the school districts/buildings you would
like to receive notices for. Once you’ve selected a school, you are asked to enter the e-mail addresses or
cell phone addresses where you would like notifications sent. You can add as many e-mail addresses as
you’d like! (Please note that some wireless services providers may charge you for receiving e-mails or
text messages. You are responsible for those charges.)
We will still make sure that local media outlets are notified when there’s a change in our classes so
notices will still be made on the television and radio, but we hope you will take advantage of this
opportunity to be directly notified as well!
If you have any questions about signing up for Iowa School Alerts, please contact the Indianola
Community School District’s administration office at (961 – 9500) or e-mail
schoolalertsinfo@iowa.gov.
