IMMS Family Flier
March 29, 2026
Hello IMMS Families,
We are excited to see our students tomorrow after having a week away. We are working towards our final stretch of the school year as Q3 ends on April 3.
We have a new activity at recess for the students at recess called "9 Square in the Air". This game is a fast paced, volleyball style game, with a goal of reaching and staying in the center square. We will be sharing the rules of the game in the student announcements.
We are very proud of the results from the Student Life Perception Survey. 6th, 7th, and 8th graders took the survey and we are proud to share many positives. Students report strong relationships with peers and staff, with most feeling safe, respected, and supported. It’s encouraging that many students say they try their best, enjoy learning, and feel a sense of belonging at school. Students also shared helpful feedback for growth. We will continue focusing on reducing classroom distractions, increasing student participation and confidence, and supporting students in managing stress.
Thank you for your partnership and support of Indian Mound Middle School.
With appreciation,
IMMS Administration
Jamie Thomas
Principal, Indian Mound Middle School

- Be on Time! School starts at 8:20am. Students who arrive after 8:20am (without a medical note/appointment note, etc.) will be marked as tardy. After five tardies in one quarter, a check in meeting with the student, as well as contact home will occur to partner on ways to get the student to school on time.
- Off and Away! Cell phones and headphones must be off and away starting at 8:15am.
- Caffeinated Drinks: students may not consume caffeinated drinks while at school.
- Respect the Bubble: An area of focus this year is to teach and re-teach the importance of having students keep their hands, feet, and objects to themself. If you see this behavior, please continue to reinforce the "Respect the Bubble" expectation
Spring Break brings Spring Allergies
April showers bring May flowers--and pollen! SPRING break and SPRING allergies have arrived. If your student suffers from seasonal allergies, Health Services can help. We are happy to keep over-the-counter allergy medicines such as Zyrtec, Claritin or Allegra for your student to take during the school day. If this is something you're interested in, please fill out our over-the-counter medication consent form and send it to your student's health office along with the medication. Medications must be sent in the original container-please no pills in baggies, tupperware or other unlabeled containers. Medication can only be administered as directed on the container and consent form.
Each health office does keep oral Zyrtec in stock, during emergency situations for those with moderate/severe allergic reactions. It is not intended for our students with seasonal allergies and careful consideration should be taken when administering at school, parent notification will be provided if school stock antihistamine is administered. Please reach out to your building's Health Office with questions. Happy Spring Days ahead!
