Special Events
March Madness
March Madness is a basketball game where students 4th grade - 6th grade get to play in a basketball game versus the teachers if they reach 100 AR points. 1st - 3rd graders who reach 100 AR points get to have their faces painted, sit on the front row, and get to shoot around at half time. Students who are younger get to cheer on there peers. This is a fun way to get students to read.
Fab Families
Fab Families is a time where multi aged students get placed in a group that they call their family. Every teacher gets a group and they get to pick the color of their shirts. This takes place on Friday once a month. Students love this time because they get to bond with younger and older students.
Bingo Nights
Once a year the Inman Elementary puts on a Bingo night for all the students. Students enjoy this night so much because they get to hang out with their friends, play games, and win prizes. They start off the evening with a few snacks and socializing. Then they start with playing some bingo and winning some prizes. This is a great way for students and families to bond.
Tech Time
Once a week students at IES get to spend 45 minutes with our Tech teacher. They like to call this Tech Time. During Tech Time students get to make, create, dream, and achieve. The teacher guides the students through lessons to help them dream. Students also at this time get to work on their iPads. Students love this time because it is fun and enjoyable.
End of Year Celebration
Each year the students and teachers get to celebrate the end of the year by either taking a trip or celebrating at the school with fun activities. In the past the students get to decide what they do. This is a very fun time for everyone as they get to celebrate the school year.
SPIRIT WEEKS
Spirit Weeks are Students Favorite. We have many spirit weeks that are meaningful like Red Ribbon Week which is to stay drug free. Whenever we have spirit weeks students love to add skits into the fun.
Pool Party
Pool Party takes place at the begining of the school year and is a time that all the kids get to meet at a public pool and spend the evening swimming and eating food. The PTO also includes some silent auctions full of baskets of goodies. This is always a fun time to bond with other grade levels.
Maker Space
One of the teachers at the school opens her classroom after school once a week for students 3rd-6th grade can come in and create things in her classroom. She recently bought a 3D printer so students have been creating with that. Teachers have also been starting to add this to their weekly schedule.
