ISE ART SHOW 2010

ISE has never looked so good thanks to Mrs. Webb!!!

If you missed the Art Show on Thursday you missed some very talented ISE students work! We have wonderful Related Arts teachers at ISE and it sure shows when we see such fantastic artwork, and musicals and all the other wonderful events these great teachers put on. Make sure you thank them for all their hard work with our kids! They are teaching them the building blocks of art, music, sport, etc.!!!

A Winning Essay!

A "Character Counts" contest was recently held in Sullivan County for 4th grade students. Each student was given the opportunity to write a short essay. After careful judging by the FCE (National Association for Family & Community Education), our very own Reagan Lancaster received first place in county competition! She went on to Immanuel Lutheran Church on March 18 to read her essay and receive her ribbon and certificate. We congratulate Reagan! Not only is her "writing of character" commendable, but her own personal character is of the highest degree as well. Great job, Reagan!
