Tomorrow's weather forecast calls for temperatures exceeding 90+ degrees throughout the day, with a real feel of 100+ degrees in classrooms at the primary and middle school buildings. Due to the forecasted extreme heat expected throughout the day on Tuesday, August 27, 2024, the Primary and Middle Schools will be CLOSED on Tuesday.
High School students are IN SESSION and expected to attend classes as normally scheduled for Tuesday.
A decision on any extracurricular activities and/or practices scheduled for tomorrow will be communicated by Mr. Brett Diehl, Athletic Director, by mid-morning on Tuesday.

Today marks the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings along the Normandy coast. Last June, Mrs. Satola took IHS students to Europe on a World War II based trip, which included a tour of the Normandy region. Students visited Pointe du Hoc, Arromanches, Omaha Beach, the Caen Memorial Museum, and the American Cemetery in Normandy. Visiting those sites in person, along with the experiences and memories made on that trip will stay with our students forever.








Oh, the places they will go! Congrats, IHS Class of 2024! #iPride


The 6th and 2nd graders had a wonderful afternoon together at Elmwood Park today to celebrate new friends and all their hard work. 6th-grade parents donated snacks and treats and helped pass out all the goodies while the teachers hosted multiple stations of music and dancing, chalk, field games and time at the park.
