ILS Tiger Families,

I am so thankful for our Parent Teacher League! Because of this group of dedicated parents, we had a successful Used Uniform Sale and snack boxes for the staff during conferences. They are also planning the Veterans Day Reception, the $5 No Uniform Day (November 6th), Spirit Night at Jumping World (November 19th), and the ILS float for the Bartlett Christmas Parade. The next PTL meeting is Tuesday, November 17th at 5:30pm in the Multipurpose Room. Please join us and help organize events for our students, families, and staff!

serving God at ILS,

Mrs. Amy Kurtz
