​PiP Accomplishments
​Have you ever wondered what PiP does to support the IIANT community and
how it allocates funds raised each year? Take a few minutes to review where
PiP is involved at IIANT. It's important to know how your parent organization
s supporting you and your students.  
From 2017-2020, PiP awarded $81,000 in grants that IIANT teachers used to
purchase continuing education courses, technology, and educational items from
which our children benefit in the classroom every day. Through the generosity of
​IIANT families and friends, PiP is  funding resources to which our Imagine Dragons would not otherwise have access!

PiP Business Directory 

PiP is seeking to showcase parents who own or work for local businesses or
have a special skills/talent to  offer the IIANT community. We encourage PiP families to patronize those within our own school community whenever
possible.
 
Listings in directory are informed by parents so we need participation to
make ​it a complete and comprehensive resource.

Healthy boundaries allow kids to feel safe, which is important to their overall mental health. They also support the
adolescents’ ability to form positive relationships and develop authentic connections. Authentic connection is key to happiness and self-acceptance.

Parents may think it could never happen in their home.  Reality is that any device with internet accesses is a tool that predators can potentially use to access children.
