Good morning, Falcons! 


Shoutout to our Marching Band and Color Guard team for their amazing performance at last weekend’s competition!  


Seniors!  If you need the link to order your cap and gown, check out the IHS website, the Class of 24 Instagram page, or the Daily Falcon Canvas page.  If you need the packet from Jostens, please pick one up at the front desk in the administration building.  Jostens will be on campus during lunch next Tuesday to take payments.


This Thursday is our first Food Sale Day!  For those of you new to IHS, we’ll have vendors selling KFC, Chick-Fil-A, Jamba Juice, Crumbl, Get it Twisted, tacos, quesadillas, bacon-wrapped hot dogs, crepes, and more!


Any freshmen, sophomores, or juniors who missed the first picture day - take note! We’ll be calling you by last name/grade for picture makeups in the gym lobby.  Freshmen will be called during 1st and 2nd, juniors will be called during 3rd and 5th, and sophomores will be called during 6th and 7th.  Order forms will be available in the gym lobby.


Attention all boys and girls wrestlers! There will be a mandatory meeting during lunch today in the wrestling room near the gym lobby.


Spanish Honor Society will meet today, October 17th, during lunch in room 814. We will discuss upcoming community service hours opportunities.


The first meeting for the Cooking Club will be in room 804 at lunch!


Do you want to learn sign language?  Come and join the ASL club.  Meetings are held every Monday during lunch in room 607.  See Ms. O'Mullan for more information. 


Interested in a community service opportunity? Stockdale Elementary is holding their annual school carnival on Thursday Oct. 19th from 3:45-7:30pm. Sign up with the counseling secretary.


It’s almost time for Halloween, which means we’re getting close to our 2nd-annual Trunk or Treat event on Thursday, October 26!  Clubs interested in participating should sign up using the form sent to all advisors no later than this Friday, October 20.  Each club is responsible for decorating their vehicle and providing individually-wrapped candy.  The club that wins the decorating contest will win a portion of the event’s profits!


Hey Falcons, if you find yourself in need of tutoring, homework help, or just a place to study, don't forget there are teacher tutors in the cafeteria every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 4:15-5:15. There's even a bus to take you home after. Check the flyers around campus or see Ms. Jackson in room 601 for more details. 


If you’re interested in playing baseball this spring, please see Coach Shelton in the PE office for information regarding the upcoming season.


Attention AP students: You are now able to put down a deposit on your AP test at the finance office. The deadline to reserve a test for the price of $98 is Oct 27. Don't wait!


After the pledge, any freshmen needing photo makeups with the last names M - Z, please report to the gym lobby!  Have a great day, Falcons!
