Huge thanks to the IMS PTO for sponsoring Kona Ice for the school today! Every student (and more than a few teachers 🤫) got a special personalized color-change cup to go along with their free Kona Ice 🍧 Our 7th graders in particular enjoyed cooling off after a morning of testing. Thanks to Kelley Deir and Cindy Fortesque for being here to facilitate this awesome start to the holiday weekend! 💙💛
IMS Room 505 Fun Friday is featuring Home Made Trail Mix to go with their News To You Article that they read this week, yummy! 😋
First full week of school is in the books ✅ Grateful to Rachel Pietrzak and her 8th grade WEB leaders for helping make the transition from IPS to IMS as seamless as possible for our new 5th graders 👏🏼 These students enjoyed lunch and recess together with their WEB leaders today - the smiles say it all! 💙💛
👟The IHS music Department has started our Shoe Donation fundraiser! Tuesday was our first Count and Wrap Party and we are up to 6️⃣4️⃣8️⃣ pairs!!! Kylie and Kayla filled the first bag, followed by about 25 more bags from Owen, Gianna, Robby, Avery, Rylee, Penny, Jamie and Lauren.
👠Our goal is 2️⃣5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ pairs. You can help by emptying your closet of shoes you’re not wearing anymore and donating them to us!
🥾Our Next drop off is IHS Open House on Thursday 8/31, 6-7:30PM. Bag up pairs of shoes and bring them in!
6th graders learned a new exciting way to change the world…. By playing a game! Free Rice is a trivia game that donates 10 grains for every correct answer to one of 40+ categories of questions. Students looked at countries around the world facing issues of poverty and how the UN World Food Program partners with Free Rice to help. Way to go 6th graders! 💙💛
Thank you to all the 6th grade students and families who joined us this afternoon for our Team Game Day! We had so much fun with all of you!
