Iowa-Grant School District

Last Friday, the students at IGEMS were able to enjoy Bounce House Day. Each grade took turns playing throughout the day, and even some of our IG Teachers got in on the fun. We want to thank the IG Parent Teacher Club for sponsoring this annual event for the students. Pizza sales from PTC's fall fundraiser help support this event.

Fresh air, fun activities, and plenty of laughs! Our 7th-grade class took a field trip to Blackhawk Lake on Friday for some fun activities and a lot of sun! Students got to play some yard games, volleyball, go on a scavenger hunt, and even reel in some nice fish. It was a great way to wrap up their 7th-grade year!

From tiny caterpillars to delicate chrysalises, and finally to beautiful butterflies, the students were captivated by every stage of the life cycle! 🐛➡️🦋
