ICES staff and students would like to recognize our Chiefs of the Week:
Mrs. Amelia Edwards is being recognized for her willingness to get out of her comfort zone and lead the second-grade team. She has been essential in completing the math pacing guides. She has worked diligently to understand Inspire and how the resources can enhance teachers' instructional capacity in delivering content.
Mrs. Niecey Mack is being recognized for her willingness to "risk it all" by standing in the line of fire to promote safety at our school. Mrs. Niecey is always visible and vigilant in her tasks of ensuring that ICES is a pleasant environment for all students and staff.
Mr. Tim Collins is being recognized for serving our team so well when discipline challenges arise. He handles students with care and empathy. He sees beyond the behavior and tries to get to the core of what the child is feeling, so we can address all of their needs.
Please help us celebrate these individuals!!!

Math was hands-on and fun in Mrs. Spell’s class today! Students worked in groups using domino cutouts to explore number combinations, then matched them to their core numeral values. Activities like this make learning math interactive and engaging while building teamwork and problem-solving skills!
Here are some more photos from this morning's Little Indian Kick Off.

Today, in honor of 9/11, our students and staff were given a meaningful opportunity to connect with history.
A fire truck that was present at Ground Zero and aided in recovery efforts was brought to campus. Students were able to see this powerful piece of history up close and learn about the events of September 11, 2001, and the heroes who served our nation that day.
We are grateful for the chance to honor the memory of 9/11 and to help our students understand the importance of remembering this day in our nation’s history.

Reminder for Parents/Guardians
This week's Chiefs of the Week at ICES goes to a grade level. This recognition was given to the fourth grade team for several reasons. This team came with a positive attitude, ready work, and provided great input during PLCs. The positive vibe made the environment conducive for sharing and learning from one another.
Other team members were recognized for going above and beyond. Mr. Gray has made sure that one of our students who had surgery over the summer was provided with a way to get back and forth with comfort. Mr. Dawson has been pivotal in greeting students and teaching them conflict resolution skills. A special shout out goes out to Mrs. Mixon. She actively participated in the PLCs, and she also displayed an act of kindness to one of her student's family.
School administrators want to thank the 4th grade team for building a positive culture in their grade level and school. Positive vibes and attitudes quickly become contagious!!!

Irwin County Elementary School recognized several staff members as "Chiefs of the Week" this week. Daphane Stevenson, Alecia Martin, Dede Stephens, and Madellen Sirmans were awarded for exemplary service to our students, families, and staff.
Today Mrs. Abby Clayton's fifth grade class enjoyed First Chapter Friday, when the students hear the first chapter of a library book that is different from what they might ordinarily try. Mrs. Clayton and Mrs. Christie Copeland, I.C.E.S. media specialist, read the beginning of a Charlie Joe Jackson book. Mrs. Clayton's students rated the book afterward and gave it a "thumbs up!" Mrs. Clayton is just one of the many I.C.E.S. teachers exploring innovative instructional strategies in English Language Arts.
