Dear Parents & Guardians, this is a friendly reminder that IMS will be dismissing school early - at 2:55pm tomorrow, Thursday, April 20th. This is because IMS is hosting our home track meet which requires staff to be at the field by 3:30pm. IMS is the only building in the district that will be dismissing early, all other schools will dismiss at their normal times. This means that if your child is a bus rider, they will arrive at home at their normal time. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the IMS office at 620-332-1836."
