BRICK ORDER DEADLINE EXTENDED UNTIL 6/12

Calling all IMS families — especially 7th & 8th-grade families!  Don’t miss this final opportunity to leave a legacy at IMS by purchasing an engraved 4” x 8” commemorative brick that will be permanently installed at the main entrance to IMS (see picture below).

Dedicate a brick for your child or make it a celebration of a favorite activity or memory.  Proceeds from the brick sales will support the many programs provided by the Issaquah Middle PTSA.  Each brick is $50.00, including engraving and installation.  The next brick sale will not take place until 2022. ORDER NOW!  Ordering online is super easy.  Click HERE to order by 6/12/2020.

 

SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT REMOTE LEARNING WITH THE DISTRICT

Please take a moment to share your thoughts with the Issaquah School District regarding remote teaching as they work toward planning for the future. Participation will be open until this Friday, June 5, 2020.  Click HERE to get started.

-- To gather your feedback, ISD is using a tool called Thoughtexchange.

-- You'll be asked to respond to one open-ended question, consider and assign stars to some of the ideas shared by others (20 to 30 is ideal), and learn what's important to the group.

-- Your thoughts and stars are confidential. You can come back as often as you'd like to participate.

-- Thoughtexchange supports input in multiple languages.

STUDENT LAPTOP AND HOTSPOT RETURN  6/23-25

Students and families who have laptops and/or hot spots checked out from the ISD will need to return those items by the end of the school year. Curbside drop off return has been scheduled for June 23, 24, and 25 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Briarwood, Endeavour, Grand Ridge, Newcastle, and Issaquah Valley Elementary Schools along with Issaquah Middle School.


8TH GRADE PARENTS – SAVE THE DATE

On August 27th, the Issaquah High PTSA will sponsor a New to IHS Night at Issaquah High which will include student tours and panels for incoming 9th graders and parents.


HELP HUNGRY FAMILIES IN ISD

We need your help, now more than ever, to assist families in our community. The Issaquah Schools Foundation is partnering with the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank to ensure students' nutritional needs are being met through this ongoing school closure. We are asking donors to purchase boxes of food directly through Supply All Kids, who will purchase food and pack boxes to distribute at the food bank.  You may also contribute directly to the Foundation and we will direct additional support to current and emerging needs during this time.
