Our friend Oliver is in Mrs. Boman's class. August 21st is DYRK1A awareness day! At two years old he was #239 to be diagnosed with DYRK1A in the world. Now he is 7 and we just reached 700! Orange is the official DYRK1A color. Mrs. Boman's class celebrated this special day with Oliver by wearing orange. Facts about DYRK1A can be found in the photos along with the picture from his class! Next year, we may need to celebrate school-wide!

Corydon Elementary Community Events CES is ready to welcome the community back into the school for some fun family events. It is difficult to accommodate due to our size, but we have found a way to include our families and make some memories for our students and their special people. FRIDAYS ONLY - BY RESERVATION ONLY - Families can schedule to have lunch with his/her child. We will now schedule for the month of September. We have 3 tables available for reservations. You can make a reservation by calling 812-738-4183 and speaking to Susan. She will add you to the calendar to hold your spot. She will need you to provide your child’s name and grade. You must provide your name to verify you have a background check on file. You cannot combine school-age siblings into one lunch time. Each student must go to lunch at their scheduled lunch time. Non-school age children can come, but must be supervised at all times. Outside food may be brought in by the family, if you choose. However, NO SOFT DRINKS are allowed. There will be a trash can and cleaner for you to wipe down your table when you are finished. This will help us to be ready for the next lunch group of families coming in. Upon your arrival, you will sign in with Susan. Then, you can choose a table in the lobby. Your student will be sent down to you. Lunch time is 30 minutes.

When completing a background check to volunteer, you will need to do this from a computer. It will not allow you to complete the background check from a phone, but you will need your phone to complete the process. I hope this makes sense. Background checks are good for 5 years. Thank you!

Starting with the 2023-2024 school year, students will be allowed up to 3 excused absences for the school year when a parent calls in to report the absence. The parent or guardian must call the school office on the day of the absence. Phone calls made the following day will not result in an excused absence. We encourage parents to use these days when their child must be absent, but a doctor's appointment isn't necessary.
