8th grade Spanish I students in Mrs. Corrigan's class have been working on a Christmas in the Spanish Speaking World Project. Today they were able to experience a Cultural Foods Day! Students were able to bring in a dish related to the Christmas season for their given country they have been studying to share with the class. Students were able to try out dishes from Puerto Rico, Colombia, Spain and many others. What a fun and delicious way to start the week! 🇵🇷 🇨🇴 🇪🇸











Our morning at IPS started off with our 4th grade cosmetology immersion project presentations! Students act as owners and operators of a salon and spa. Students designed hair styles on a “manikin”, booked appointments, and gave other spa services!
And after off we went to the preschool holiday party! Our preschool students did a great job performing for parents and family members!
Thank you @CVCCWorks career specialist Amanda Jaronowski and the IPS preschool team for a wonderful morning!
