International Night - Tuesday, October 22nd from 6:00-7:30
We are fortunate at Horn to have so many different countries represented in our school. International Night is a wonderful event where families from our school come together to showcase their cultures.
Are you interested in sharing your culture with the Horn community? If so, sign-up to host a table by contacting Sara Cummins (cummins.sara@iowacityschools.org). Table hosts bring pictures, items, toys, artifacts, and/or food native to their country and talks and shares with Horn families who visit to learn more. We would love to have as many countries represented as possible, including the United States. Individual families can host a table or friends can work together.
We'll the end the evening with a fashion show featuring students and families who would like to participate.

It's hard to believe, but winter is coming soon! Snow, ice, and temperatures that drop below freezing. To keep your child safe from cold-weather injuries, they should come to school every day during the winter months with a warm coat, hat, and gloves or mittens. Once the snow and ice arrives they should also have winter boots and snow pants.If your family needs assistance getting winter items for your Horn student and would like to see if we have items available in their size, please contact Megan Recker, the Student and Family Advocate. You can email her at recker.megan@iowacityschools.org or call her at 319-688-1179. Winter items are limited in number and we cannot guarantee availability of all items in all sizes.
