2026-27 Eagle Update

Indian Hills Elementary

Dear Eagles,

Some quick reminders for the week ahead!

  1. Community Food Drive: Our food drive continues! Please bring your donations and place them in your House's collection box in the lobby. 
     
  2. Every Day Counts! As we head further into November, please help us make every school day count by arriving on time and ready to learn. We have a fire drill scheduled for Monday at 8:30 a.m., so it's especially important that students arrive on time. Attendance matters!
     
  3. Tuesday is PTO Dine Out @ Zao in Foothill Village.
     
  4. Veterans Day is Wednesday! We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who have served our country. Thank you for your service and sacrifice!

It's going to be a great week, Eagles!

Warmly,
Dr. P.

P.S. The photo below is of my children reading with their beloved grandfather, who earned a Purple Heart while serving in Vietnam 57 years ago. Veterans Day is especially meaningful to our family, and I'm proud to share this little piece of our family's history with you.

House Challenge - Community Food Drive

Indian Hills Community Food Drive | November 2–18

Let's show what our Eagle community can do! Indian Hills is collecting food and essential items to support East High School's food pantry, which serves SLCSD students and families in need.

We're asking each student to donate at least two items from their House's donation list. Items include nonperishable foods, socks, winter accessories, and personal hygiene products. Additional donations are welcome!

Drop off donations in your House's collection bin in the front foyer from November 2–18. Please note that clothing donations must be new and in adult sizes.

Five Houses, One Community — Every Eagle Belongs!

November is a month for giving thanks and giving back! We're kicking things off with our Community Food Drive to support East High School's food pantry. Let's show what our Eagle community can do when we work together to help our neighbors!
