Canned Food Drive
Student Council recently completed its annual Canned Food Drive. The results were amazing - our students contributed 1083 cans and boxes of prepared foods!!! These young people truly have the Christian spirit of reaching out to others. Whatever parents are doing at home is making an impact on them.
Our school contributions were sent to the Parish food pantry to assist in making the Thanksgiving baskets that are distributed from our Church for this holiday each year.
As a reward (And virtue is its own reward!) the I.C. students were treated to a free dress down day on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

Cultural Enrichment
The STARLAB portable planetarium from the Museum of Science brought a dark, cloudless night to I.C.during the daytime. The program presented a realistic model of the night sky over our school on the date of the visit. With the addition of video images and simulations, students got an up-close look at some of the most distant objects that can be seen from earth.
They also discovered how the relationships between the Earth, Moon and Sun cause the phases of the Moon as well as solar and lunar eclipses. The budding astronomers observed the plane of our galaxy, the Milky Way in the model sky and learned why it looks the way it does.

Greek Civilization
The sixth grade is currently studying Ancient Greece as part of their Ancient Civilizations curriculum. On March 27th the sixth grade held an Ancient Greek festival where each student, dressed in costume, presented herself or himself as an ancient Greek god or goddess. Students played the parts of such gods as Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, and Ares, among others. Sixth graders read Ancient Greek myths and learned the importance of worshipping such gods in the daily life of the Greeks. The festival also included Greek foods. It was a fun and educational experience for the students!
