The National PTA offers Parents’ Guides to Student Success in both English and Spanish, providing clear and consistent expectations for what students should learn at each grade level to be prepared for college and career. These guides were thoughtfully developed by teachers, parents, and education experts. They are available for grades K-8, as well as high school English, language arts/literacy, and mathematics.

 
Staff Appreciation
We were thrilled to welcome back our incredible ILHS teachers and staff with a special snack setup! A SHOUT OUT to Maggie R., our Staff Appreciation Co-Chair, for organizing this lovely gesture. All the delicious snacks were generously donated by the Guardians of the Ravens. We are so grateful for your support and dedication to making our school community feel appreciated! Watch for more opportunities to participate in staff appreciation events this year!
