| May 15, 2026 Dear Indian Hills Families, It was such a joy to see our Indian Hills community come together for our wonderful Student Showcase Night last night! Families had the opportunity to admire over 1,000 unique pieces of student artwork displayed throughout the school and visit classrooms to celebrate a year of incredible learning and growth. THe writing pieces and work samples in each classroom were impressive, and show how much our students have truly learned this year. From exploring impressive STEM projects and the new schoolwide art project in the cafeteria to getting active with the Lu interactive board in the gym, the evening was filled with excitement. The art room’s transformation into the “Glow Room” was a highlight; and overall, Mrs. Petry really went all out with the art show, ensuring that every child was recognized as an artist! We thank our Parent Club for putting on the BOGO Book Fair in the Media Center. Thank you to ALL staff and families for making this event so special by supporting our students as they shared their hard work and creativity with their loved ones. We are so proud of our students and grateful for the vibrant community that makes events like this possible!
