I A Lewis is hosting a BOOK FAIR next week in the library! There will be lots of exciting books, colorful posters, and fun trinkets available for purchase. Funds raised will be used for student requested purchases! Parents, please make plans to visit us Thursday night. See everyone soon!


Parents/guardians, please read the announcement regarding cold weather gear: While we do allow students to wear jackets to school, jackets may not be worn during the school day in hallways or classrooms. If students want to wear something warmer in the classroom, they must wear a regular crewneck sweatshirt (plain school colors or IAL or Ruston) with no pockets, zippers or hoods. Any caps, beanies, fleece/sweater headbands, or gloves worn to school must also be put away in lockers upon arrival. Thanks for your help with this!

If you have students in your homerooms they are dressed for Red Ribbon Week, please send me pictures if you think about it! We can use those for the yearbook & in posts to show parents & the community how awesome IALewis!

Parents, don't forget that Picture Day at IAL is tomorrow. Students should wear regular uniform clothes for these pictures. Thanks!

Finishing our football season with a great game vs Riser Middle is just the begining of a very busy month at I A Lewis! A copy of this calendar was sent home on Friday of last week. If you did not get one or need another, please see Ms. Touchstone in the library!

Join us for our first home football game at 5:30pm on Thurs, Aug 31st. IAL 6th Graders will take on the 7th graders at RJHS. Go Rams!

Don't forget that students need to charge Chromebooks tonight. They can leave the charger at home but will need to bring the Chromebook daily to school for use. If your student did not receive a CB on Friday, it is likely that we do not have a signed Chromebook Contract from you yet (or that it was processed late in the day on Friday). The Chromebook Contract was included in the stapled set of papers given out at the beginning of school. If you need another copy, these are available in the main office. Thanks!

On Friday, all IAL students received a Counselor’s Newsletter and a booklet Guide for Parents to the Internet & Social Media. Please ask your student and review this important information. Also, tomorrow is the final deadline for online t-shirt orders. http://tommystees.com/ial_round4_23-24/shop/home
