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.

On Friday, May 3, Independence High School's students and staff had the opportunity to honor Cinco de Mayo with an authentic Mexican lunch. The school's talented cafeteria staff member, Selma Pruchinski, who moved to the United States from Mexico a few years ago, shared her culinary expertise by preparing an authentic Mexican lunch menu, made entirely from scratch. "The celebration of Cinco de Mayo provides a unique opportunity to learn about the history, traditions, and contributions of the Mexican community and experience and appreciate the rich flavors and traditions of Mexican cuisine," said Service Manager Francine Kane. The studentsβ favorite dish was the chicken quesadilla!
