Our Teacher of the Month for May is Breeze Jones. Teachers say "Breeze is a wonderful classroom instructor; she gives 100% to her work here at IMS. She quietly goes about the building helping students- they have no idea on how much extra time she puts in behind the scenes. From grading essays to collecting data, she thinks critically on how to improve instruction and learning. She deserves to represent IMS as a teacher of the month. "
Thank you, Mrs. Jones!!! #TheBulldogWay

Did you know the town of Independence does not have a city flag?
Mrs. Woodward's 6th grade social studies class has been learning about where flags came from. The students took their knowledge about flags and applied it to create a flag representing the town of Independence. After creating the flags that represent Independence the classes voted to come up with seven finalists. Those finalists were Bryor Smith, Maddie Stair, Lucy McAfee, Henry Matlock, Saige Rock, Kaelynn Carnes and Cyarra Rexwindle.
Mrs. Woodward sent the seven finalist flags to the Mayor of Independence, Tim Emert and he picked a winner! The winner of Mrs. Woodward's 6th grade social studies Flag contest is Kaelynn Carnes.
Again congratulations to Kaelynn Carnes for winning the flag contest. She will receive a gift card and her flag will be hung by the office for the next couple of weeks. #TheBulldogWay
