Iron, Golf and a Battle at Gettysburg.....

Lots to say and show....

Today is a "No School" day. Our teachers and staff are at orientation to IB, learning more and more about the curriculum we want to bring to our great students. So today, the teachers will be the students and our students get to sleep in!

Our girls golf team has really come together. The girls are having a blast. Our schedule was a bit hampered by the fact that local schools go off-schedule of IHSAA and do golf as a club sport in the spring. So had a great deal of scheduling difficulties. But Coach Friend and Coach Frazier have been fantastic and the girls have had a great time...check out the photos below:

We have had some great history stuff going on too. In case you didn't see the fantastic writeup in The Republic, Mr. Bentz, who is our music teacher, did double duty as History Sub and brought in his Civil War artifacts. The students had a fantastic time. They got to do a reenactment of the Battle at Gettysburg. (I found myself drifting out to listen, which is crazy because I normally HATE history, but the passion and the enthusiasm Mr. Bentz and the students were showing was contagious!) See some pictures below....

Some of our art students had an opportunity to take part in the Columbus Iron Pour. Thanks to a generous donation, the students got to learn about something so incredible and beautiful. See pictures below of the scratch blocks and also the finished products with some of our students....

Lots of great stuff this week....

Tuesday, we kicked off the week with "Put Your Nose in a Book" day. Students all across Bartholomew County spent 20 minutes reading starting at 10:00am. Here are some of our readers....

Mrs. Nobbe and Mr. Stack's class read something other than Algebra!



























Two of our students got comfy for their break from English class to read.






Nathaniel and Connor were really into their books!

Isaac is reading the Twilight Book Series, much to Mrs. Hauersperger's delight!

Wednesday was a big day for ISC Athletics. Our Boys Tennis team went to Indian Creek. While the trip ended with a defeat, our boys were fantastic! Coach Klei and the boys have worked so hard and it really showed! Check out some of the pictures....

Alexei showed off his backhand!

Congratulations to our Jaguar Tennis Team! We are very proud of you!!!!!!!

What a great Friday to lead up to the holiday weekend!

We had a great Friday before the holiday weekend. Everyone was in good spirits! But our science kids in first and second period got a special surprise. Captain Caroline Coffey and 2nd Lieutenant Michael Gifford came in from Wichita, Kansas to talk with our students. But there was a little more to it than that, as 2nd Lieutenant Gifford is the brother of one of our students, Taylar G. AND she had no idea he was coming in! Check out the video below:

They talked about how science plays into their roles in the Air Force. The kids had great questions! Thanks to both for coming and Ed and Deb Wilson for arranging it!

This week, ISC has their FIRST EVER sporting events. Our tennis team will be at Indian Creek on Wednesday and Brownstown on Thursday. If you can come, do and support your Jaguars! Otherwise, stop in here to see the results!

Lunch program is a great success! The food is fantastic (I ordered all week!) and there is plenty for an adult or child! Remember to send in orders on Thursday for the next week!!
