The IMS staff is doing a cookie exchange as part of their holiday celebration, and we are asking the IMS families to join in the fun. Dig out your favorite cookie recipes, bake them and bring them to IMS to share with the staff for their first annual cookie exchange.
The cookie exchange will be on December 17th. We need all cookies brought to the staff lounge between 9:30-10am. Please include a copy of your recipe to put out with your cookies. If you have any questions please contact us at:

TThe Homeroom families of Hagebusch, Hashmey, Henchen, Hoyt and Jackson have been given the opportunity to serve the staff at IMS! We will be hosting a fun Breakfast Buffet to accompany the IMS Staff holiday celebration. The Staff really enjoyed the homemade casseroles Holiday Staff Breakfast last year! They look forward to the families bringing in homemade food... it makes them feel more connected to the student and parent community.
Thank you for contributing to not only a fun treat for the Panther Staff but also for providing an opportunity for them to gather and build their community.
As you sign up please take note of the drop-off date options. The casseroles will need to be brought warm between 7:20-7:30am on Thursday morning 12/17.
