Happy Friday, Falcons!


Testing makeups are happening today - students, if you’re scheduled for today, head directly to your testing location!


Important reminder from the deans: Students are not allowed to sell anything at school not approved through the activities office. This includes candy, homemade food, toys, and any form of gambling. Students can be suspended for selling on campus and face fines. Students caught using fireworks, confetti eggs, and water guns face suspension from all activities, detention, and items will not be returned.


The student store will be closed at lunch today.


Wish our colorguard team good luck as they head to Manhattan Beach today!


Next week is a SPIRIT WEEK!  The freshman class is hosting a “Toy Story” spirit week!  Monday is “Sid v. Andy” (or alt. versus “straight edge”).  Tuesday is “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” so find a friend and dress as twins!  Wednesday is “Andy’s Pals,” so bring your favorite stuffie!  Thursday is “Cowboys v. Aliens,” so wear your best western gear or go intergalactic!  We’ll have games and prizes every day during lunch!


We also have a Sadie Hawkins dance next Thursday (March 30).  Tickets are $5, and can be purchased at the finance office or at the door.  The dance will be in the IHS cafeteria from 4:30 - 6:30pm.  Hope to see you there!


Seniors - Friday, March 31st will be the last day the finance office will accept checks from the class of 2023.  Please be prepared to pay with cash after spring break.  This will include prom payments. 


Next Tuesday, March 28 is the final showdown - 5:00pm in the gym for Ironman and 6:30pm at the stadium for Powderpuff!!


Now that our prom theme has been revealed (Met Gala), it’s time to start thinking about the royalty court!  Juniors and seniors are eligible to run for King/Queen and Prince/Princess.  Applications will be available in the Activities Office on Wednesday.  Applications are due by April 21.  


Prom tickets will go on sale the Tuesday we return from Spring Break!  Check out the pricing schedule on the IHS website and IHS Falcons Instagram - remember, the finance office is open only before school and during lunch, except for one hour after school on Mondays.


Interested in helping make decisions for IHS?  Want to be a leader on campus?  Applications for the 2023-2024 ASB team will be available starting Monday, March 27!  Applications and recommendations are due by April 19!


We have another blood drive coming up on April 25!  Permission slips will be available in the Activities Office tomorrow.  Make sure to sign up for an appointment using the QR code on the IHS website or Instagram!


Seniors - we still have a few tickets for Grad Night available for purchase!  Get yours before they sell out!  Also, check out the guide for Spring Senior Activities posted on the IHS website and on the Class of 23 Instagram page!


Have a great weekend, Falcons!
