*Color Run is this Wednesday 4/11. This is THE major fundraiser for our iMiddle Foundation, and money earned supports activities that benefit our students directly, such as 8th grade Promotion trip to Belmont, iParties, PAC parties, STEAM challenges and many more. Please make sure to turn all money in to Mrs. Miller or to the front office.
*We are all very excited to be in the brand new building, and like anything new, we want to keep it looking and functioning great for as long as we can. While they might not be as new and shiny, this philosophy applies to the bungalows, science buildings, lunch areas and courts as well. What can you do to make sure you are taking pride in ALL of the iMiddle community?
No eating or drinking in any classroom, hallways, or courts. If you have a water bottle, please make sure it has a closing non spill lid. No cans of drinks or sports drinks allowed.
If you drop something, pick it up. If you see that someone else has dropped trash or another item, pick it up
Walking feet only, in all areas of campus, unless playing a sport on the courts or field
Stay to the right when walking up and down the stairs
Hold the door open for the person behind you
Use appropriate language throughout the campus
When upstairs in the new building, do not walk through the iDEA space during passing periods or on the furniture
