Last Friday our 6th Grade Ambassadors and Student Council traveled all the way to Indian Land Elementary School to read to the 1st and 2nd graders! One of our ambassors, Blythe Banks, even wrote her own story titled, "The Kindness Tree"! The kids had a great time, and it was especially fun for some of our ILIS students to return to their beloved elementary school. 💙💛 Thank you so much to our lovely hosts at ILE, we were so glad to come visit! :)
Good Afternoon, Warriors! This information is the same that came into your inbox at 4pm. we just want to make sure you see it.

Wow- what a HUGE jump yesterday!!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! As you head into school, if you find any coins in the car, tucked into the couch cushions, a bill crumpled in the bottom of your jacket packet, bring it on in! It looks like 6th grade is pretty far behind 5th grade. Can 6th grade catch up and take the pizza party win!? We all hope to reach our goal for our Pajama AND Hat day! (That's an update- we heard the kids and they want hats, too!)
Thank you again for all your support!

We have three more days for our CASH COW Fundraiser! Do you have extra coins or bills that you can spare? Every cent counts, and we are hoping to have our new murals on the wall in time for the Encore Expo coming in April!
Send in coins and bills with your student- top earning team wins a Pizza Party, and if we hit our goal of $2500, students will earn Pajama Day on March 10th!

Alright, wrong holiday. But someone’s call to Elsa clearly went through this winter! And lucky for our Warriors, teachers let them go outside to enjoy the snowflakes! Check out our Facebook page for dozens more photos!

TOMORROW: Hey Warriors, we can't wait to see you rep your favorite MERCH! Have a favorite team? Favorite artist or movie? Maybe you're a MASSIVE Disney or Universal fan. Bust out whatever merch you got and show your pride! (Maybe that means an ILIS shirt?! )
See you tomorrow, Warriors!
We’re still feeling the excitement from Thursday’s celebrations! Our staff enjoyed delicious cookies from Sugary Smiles Cookies (check her out on Facebook!), and we kept the energy going during our Professional Development Day on Monday.
We kicked off the day with a Blind Date Breakfast, where staff members sat with colleagues from different teams—including 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, SPED, Encores, and Support Staff. With 127 staff members, it’s easy to stick with familiar faces, so this was a great way to mix things up and build connections across the building.
After breakfast, Ms. Gorrell and Ms. Morrison led an engaging and productive workshop to keep us growing and improving.
We’re recharged and ready for the week ahead! Enjoy the rest of your day, and we’ll see your students bright and early tomorrow!
All schools and offices will be closed February 14, 2025.
