A message from Mrs. Cadden: Please help your child to remember to bring a water bottle for the days they have gym class! Our drinking fountains are still unavailable for use and we want to ensure students are properly hydrated during our movement activities. Also, please be aware that sneakers are required for class. Crocs are not a substitute for sneakers. Thanks for your continued support and cooperation!

Good Afternoon IES families! We can't wait to see you at tonight's Open House from 6:00-7:30 pm.

Thank you!
