Independence High School

Good morning, Falcons!  Hope everyone enjoyed their extra hour of sleep this weekend!  Don’t forget - this Friday is Veterans Day, so there’s no school!


Huge congratulations to our varsity football team for smashing the first round of playoffs! Next up is a battle against Tulare this Thursday! Come out and show your support! 


It’s not too late to sign up for the blood drive on Thursday!  You must be at least 16 years old and have permission slips signed by your parent/guardian.  Permission slips must be submitted tomorrow.  Forms are available in the Activities Office! Also don’t forget to scan the QR code to make your appointment time. 


Big News for Independence Mathletes!!! Falcons are SECOND PLACE in Kern County after our first ever California Mathematics League Competitive Exam!!! Congratulations to all the students who scored!


Hello, all you chess aficionados! The Chess Club meets on Wednesdays in Room 815. If you are already a pro, or if  you want to learn, come by and bring a friend.


We’ll be distributing boxes to classrooms to collect canned and boxed food for our Thanksgiving drive!  Huge thanks to the UN club for organizing the frozen turkey donation! Students, start bringing in canned or boxed food that would be served for Thanksgiving - like mashed potatoes, corn, cranberry sauce, or stuffing.  All donations will be due by Wednesday, November 15.  The 2nd-period class with the most donations will win a donut party!  


Seniors!  If you missed the earlier deadline for ordering customized senior shirts and hoodies, you have another chance!  Pick up an order form from the Activities Office!


Cal-SOAP will be helping seniors and their parents fill out their financial aid applications this evening from 4pm-6pm in the library.

 

Want to show off your talent?  Start preparing your song, dance, comedy routine, or whatever talent you have, as auditions for Falcons Got Talent will take place after school on Monday, November 14!  The show will be on December 1!


Have a fabulous day!
