Good Afternoon, Warren Scholars, Families, and Staff,
We have a few important announcements for the week of August 21st.
Today is day 20 of the 2024-2025 school year and it has been a great first half of the 1st quarter. I want to give a #WarrenWill shout-out to our students and families for your efforts in getting this year off to a fantastic start. We are seeing improved attendance and I am hearing from our teachers that students are engaged and focused on learning! Keep up the great work!
Indiana Learning Lab
Warren Families and Caregivers, I would like to share a resource to assist you with supporting your child's academics. It is called the Indiana Learning Lab and it is a collection of educational resources for teachers and parents. This free repository of resources is created by the Indiana Department of Education and is updated regularly. You can sort by grade level, content area, and type of resource you are looking for.
Some of the resource topics include:
Back to School Tips
Specific Subject and Academic Supports
Resources for the Indiana Academic Standards and ILEARN
College and Career Readiness
Information about local venues and activities
You can access the Indiana Learning Lab by visiting the inlearninglab.com or by visiting our District’s family resource page linked here.

We will have 15 fun carnival games for students and families to play, all hosted by our local Warren school PTA units. We will have a variety of vendors at the event for you to shop and buy from. Plus, grab a bingo vendor card and be entered to win a Crew Car Wash booklet. Several food trucks will be onsite at the event.
