Kicking off testing season!

Yesterday, we kicked off our series of state testing for the school year beginning with the FSA ELA Writing test. Our students have been working extremely hard and we have no doubt that they are all going to do amazingly well! We've got a little bit of a break and then we will start back up again mid-April with the rest (Reading, Math, Algebra, Geometry, Civics and 8th Grade Science).

IMS Takes First Place!!!

Way to go Chargers!!! We sure rocked the Science Fair - FIRST place for the 2015 junior division! This is an e-mail from Mrs. Shaffer highlighting all that our Chargers have accomplished! We are so proud of you all!!!

Dear IMS Family: I am excited to announce the results of the Citrus Regional Science and Engineering Fair Awards ceremony. Thirteen IMS students were recognized this year with first, second, third place awards along with "special" awards. From this group, 4 participants and 1 alternate were selected to attend the 60th State Science and Engineering Fair of Florida that will be held in Lakeland , FL from March 31st-April 2nd. Our student representatives are: Jacob Hensley (eighth grade), Connor Bishop (seventh grade), Emma Baumer (sixth grade), Tiffany Keene (sixth grade) and alternate Chloe Swinton (sixth grade). The IMS Science department is proud to announce that we received the Citrus Regional Science and Engineering Fair #1 School (Junior Division) for 2015. I felt as if the whole team was with me as I walked across the stage to receive the award to bring back to IMS. It's a great day to be a Charger!
