Let's go Bulldogs! Great week to come! #TheBulldogWay
National Library Day is celebrated every year on 6 April. The celebrations are a part of National Library Week, organized by the American Library Association. Throughout the week, and especially on this day, people come together to celebrate the crucial roles that libraries and librarians play in our society. It’s also the day to reflect on the importance of reading and how essential it is to make books accessible and affordable for every reader. A well-stocked library can introduce readers to many new worlds, and helps them become more informed citizens.
Thank you to our IMS Librarian, Mrs. White and Library Aide, Mrs. Julie King. IMS appreciates you helping us go on adventures through books!
Come join our family!!! #TheBulldogWay

Our Classified Staff of the Month is Mrs. Potter!!!! Mrs. Potter is our ISS supervisor but also wears so many different hats in our building. She is vital to helping our classroom teachers be successful. We appreciate all she does for our students, teachers and administration. Congrats!! #TheBulldogWay
Our Teacher of the Month is Mrs. Reardon. Students report they "love the stories she tells in class" and that she is a "really good teacher." In addition to being a strong classroom teacher, Mrs. Reardon does a lot for students outside of the classroom as well. For example, she made and donated a quilt as a fundraiser for a colleague who's experiencing family medical issues; she also randomly pays off student's library fines. Thanks for all you do, Mrs. Reardon! #TheBulldogWay
