Congratulations Owen on making Top 15 All-Conference!!!
Celebrating IGHS Staff throughout the year! Thank you for all that you do!
Leslie B. rounded out the senior stage crew leadership by helping out with props, sets, and furniture. During the show, the stage crew need to move things around quickly, quietly, and sometimes even in the dark. Leslie helped take charge to make those things happen! Congratulations, Leslie!
Congratulations Hudson on making Ridge & Valley All-Conference!!!
Ivy L. brings a ton of creative, spontaneous spirit to our shows every year. This year as Torrey the wedding planner, Ivy portrayed their character’s extreme ups and downs throughout the show and helped find ways to bring more energy to each of their scenes. As an audience, it’s fun to watch students who have made their character their own, and Ivy has been one of those students every year. Congratulations, Ivy!
Ty R. has been a dependable part of our stage crew over the last four years. As a freshman, Ty did backstage props for The Third Wave, including running the school bell which rang throughout the show. This year his job was much quieter, and he led the lights team that was seated behind the audience. Congratulations, Ty!
Today we thank the Iowa-Grant bus drivers & transportation workers that safely transport our I-G's most precious cargo to and from school each day and athletic events all season long. #IGPantherPride
Congratulations Hope on making Top 15 All-Conference!!!!
On Wednesday this week, the Kindergarten class traveled to Cooks Woods. The students learned about types of evergreen trees, how long it takes trees to grow, and how to count the rings on a tree trunk to tell how old it is. Kindergarteners also helped to make a wreath, door swags, and cut down two trees to decorate the IGEMS front entrance. Thank you to Dave and Barb Cook, along with their wonderful employees, for making this trip a memorable experience for our students!
Eighth grade student Mason H. is our first reading millionaire at IGEMS. Mason read nine books in 11 weeks! That is quite an accomplishment. We set forth a challenge to our students to read one million words in a school year. Studies have shown that those students who read a million words in a school year have better vocabulary, background knowledge, problem solving abilities, and perform better on standardized tests. Keep on reading, Panthers!
Kenadie M. did a terrific job this year with her supporting role as Hannah. Each supporting role in our show has a stand-out moment, and Kenadie’s was the slow-motion fight near the end of the show. Kenadie brought her creativity and perseverance to help solve problems and overcome challenges. Congratulations, Kenadie!
📚🐾Today the IGEMS 7th and 8th Grade students were proud to host Brad Van Epps from CESA 3.
Brad the Book Guy travels to middle schools and high schools to present a live show where he previews and recommends books for students to read. We enjoy listening to his program each week.
It was very exciting to have him here with us at IGEMS. Brad donated several popular books for our classroom libraries. It is always good to make time for reading.
Alexis T-B. stirred up trouble on stage this year as Savannah, Ellie’s rival. Alexis loved playing the “bad guy”! She has always been a great example of a student who gets involved as much as she can. She’s a leader in FFA, Forensics, and many other activities at IG, and she gives each activity her best effort. Congratulations, Alexis!

Gracie S. is one of the seniors in our cast. Since her freshmen year, when she played Bomber in The Third Wave, Gracie has grown a ton as a performer. Having a lead role takes a lot of work and effort, both during and outside of rehearsal. To prepare for the role of Katherine, Gracie not only had to learn a huge part, but had to get comfortable singing many different styles of music. She handled it all, even wearing an ankle boot for the last four weeks! Congratulations, Gracie!
The freshmen English classes recently read October Sky. After reading about Homer Hickam's goal of building rockets, students were able to design and launch rockets of their own. Pictured are the winners whose rockets flew the highest and those who the staff voted for best design. All of the rockets were a success!
