Dear Middle School Parents & Students,
It was such a pleasure to welcome so many of you into the building this week for our Back to School night presentations and school tour. I am so thankful that you have chosen ICS for your child's education. I pray that the night was fruitful and helped you have a better understanding of the experiences your child will have here at ICS this year. I know that some of the items may take time to adjust to and I pray that you will continue to reach out with questions along the way.
Next week we have our MS photo day on Wednesday, August 26. All students must wear their normal school uniform on this day which consists of the navy polo shirt and khaki shorts/pants. No PE uniforms are allowed to be worn.
