IHCS Families,
Please be aware that our Career Day is scheduled for today, November 4th, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Part of this event is vehicle-based, allowing students to explore various career-related vehicles and learn how they are used in different professions. These vehicles (including a firetruck, ambulance, and/or police car) will be parked in front of our school.
Due to this, the front drop-off/pick-up lane in our parking lot will be closed from 8:30 AM to 12:15 PM. If your student arrives late or needs to be picked up during this time, please note that the lane will be closed to through traffic. Please use the parking lot if you need to visit the front office.
Thank you for your cooperation in making this event a great learning experience for our students!
