LAND LAB OPEN HOUSE 2023
Thanks to all who braved the elements and came out to make this year's Open House a big success!





October 19, 2023 - PSAT - Juniors and Sophomores
IHS will administer the PSAT to all our junior and sophomore students on October 19th, 2023. Juniors and sophomores will report to Independence High School for the usual start of the school day (7:40 a.m.). After the PSAT, juniors and sophomores will be dismissed from school.
If you have questions regarding the PSAT, please get in touch with your child's school counselor for more information.

EARNING FIELD CRED @ THE L.L.!
Mrs. Luoma's AP Stats class visited the Land Lab to experience the techniques behind the data.
Before you can start crunching numbers, you have to get out in the field and collect them.
And this crew did just that, earning them some major field cred! :)





It's National School Lunch Week! 🍔🥗 This week we celebrate the hardworking staff who keep our cafeterias running and students nourished. #iPride
