We will be posting throwbacks throughout the summer of activities that happened in classrooms this school year that we didn't get up on socials! We hope you enjoy the journey back in time!
Today we head allllll the way back to....May 5th. 🤣
Ms. Williams writes, "Today we celebrated Cinco de Mayo while wrapping up our “Countries Around the World” on Mexico. We learned why Cinco de Mayo is celebrated, made Maracas and enjoyed food from the Mexican culture!"
Thank you so much for sharing Ms. Williams, and great work Warriors!


Summer is HERE! If you need anything over the summer, we got you! Give us a call, or come on by. Also remember to keep in touch on our social media pages and website.
Have the best summer ever, Warriors! We will miss you!

DAY ONE OF FIELD DAY: ✅ COMPLETE! (Dozens and dozens more photos on Facebook!)
A huge thank you to Mr. Gutmann, the entire Encore Team, our amazing PTO, and all the ILIS staff volunteers for making today an unforgettable celebration for our 5th graders!
Students enjoyed 10 awesome stations including a bounce house in the gym (!!!), gaming in the AC and a splash worthy water station outside! It was a day full of fun, laughter, and big smiles. Be sure to scroll through the photos and see the memories being made as we wrap up an incredible year at the Intermediate School.

Don't Forget! We've been having so much fun, and this Spirit Day will be no different! :)



We are always proud of Ms. Riddle and Ms. Gavigan. But this year, they have truly transformed this program and our students have grown more this year than ever before. Their leadership, dedication and passion is passed right onto these budding musicians.
Ms. Riddle wanted to share yet another awesome accoplishment made by her musicians!
She writes: "This past Friday, the 6th Grade Band traveled to Carowinds to participate in the Festival of Music. At this event, they performed in front of three judges that are band directors from universities around the country. Our 6th Grade Band earned a rating of Superior, the highest rating possible! We are so incredibly proud of this group of young musicians. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for them and I know that they will put their best foot forward everytime.
Thank you so much to every parent, volunteer, teacher, staff member, administrator, and driver that has helped us and been by our side this year. This huge program takes a village, and the Warrior Band is very thankful for ours!! Go Warriors!!"
Be sure to check the Facebook Comments for videos taken by Ms. Nugent!!!



The end of the school year may be around the corner, but we're still working hard over here at the Intermediate School!
Ms. Harwood’s 5th grade math class learned about simple probability today with m&ms! Students looked a theoretical, and experimental probability while doing this fun lab!
We are certain the kids absolutely loved this experiment. Great work, Ms. Harwood!
