Get Ready
Before the First Bell
 
Step 1
MISD RSVP via Skyward Family Access

Don’t forget to complete all the district forms, permission slips and notifications required for the start of school via Skyward Family Access. Forms should be completed prior to the first day of school. Teacher placement is available via Skyward Family Access; MISD will send a letter/email when that information is ready.

 

Important: you won’t be able to see your child’s teacher until you’ve completed the RSVP process.

 
Step 2
Complete the Back-to-School Parent Pack
Opens Fri, Aug 21 · 4:30 PM
  • Join the PTA (paid membership grants full access to the password-protected online directory)
  • Donate to the PTA Fundraising Ask Campaign (donations are tax deductible)
  • Pay for school supplies
  • Donate an Eagle Birthday Book to the Island Park Library on behalf of your student

A notification email will be sent when the Parent Pack is available.

 
Step 3
School Supplies

To streamline the process, the PTA has coordinated with the school to pre-order all necessary school supplies. Please submit the school supply fee as part of your Back-to-School Parent Pack payment.

 
Step 4
Volunteer – Get Involved!
Opens Fri, Aug 21

Volunteering at Island Park is a great way to get involved inside or outside the classroom — we love our volunteers because they make our events fun and successful! Sign up to volunteer.
