Good morning, Falcons!  Today is National Chocolate Day, which means it’s also National Give Your Teacher Chocolate Day.  Just so you know, this is a great way to improve their mood!


Thank you to everyone who tried out for Falcons Got Talent!  We’ll announce the names of those who made it into the show tomorrow at the end of the day.  There will be a list posted on the Activities Office window.  


Are you animated and outgoing?  Do you love going to IHS events?  If you meet those criteria and are a junior or senior, come try out to be our school mascot after school TODAY in the cafeteria!  We need YOU to be Freddy the Falcon!


It’s getting chilly!  Animal Club will be collecting gently used and new blankets for shelter dogs, many of whom sleep on cold concrete floors. Please turn them in to your 2nd period class. Winning class gets a donut party!


We hope you’ve been enjoying the RISE activities and the competitions at lunch!  Also, shout out to those of you displaying amazing RISE behavior - Mrs. Giese’s 3rd period class was cleaning up our campus yesterday.  What a wonderful display of responsibility and service!  


Remember, tomorrow is our Halloween costume contest, so get ready to strut your stuff on the red carpet in the quad!  Winners receive gift cards!  Just remember - no full-face masks or weapons!


Winter sport tryout times have been updated - please check the IHS website for the new times.  


There will be a short meeting for Freshman and Sophomores interested in playing baseball today at lunch in the gym.
