As we wrapped up the final days of school, we celebrated the IA Team one last time! A little fizz for the finale felt just right after everything they poured into this school year.

PTO hosted a Dirty Soda Bar stocked with fizzy favorites, creative mix‑ins, sweet add‑ons, and plenty of chances to unwind, laugh, and enjoy a refreshing break one last time together. Teachers and staff also met their EduGators, and we snapped a few photos before everyone headed off for summer adventures.

Keep an eye on social media...the EduGators will be traveling far and wide with the IA Team, and we can’t wait to follow along on their journeys.

See you later, EduGators! 🐊✈️🧳🛥️

Well, that’s a wrap on another incredible school year!

Thank you to all the families who came out to celebrate with us at Jumping Cholla last night—we loved seeing the kids bounce, laugh, inhale slushies and burn off just a little of that end-of-year energy.

To our amazing staff: thank you for everything you’ve poured into our kids this year. Your official summer assignment is to not teach anyone anything for at least a few weeks. You’ve earned it.

And to our parents—good luck! May your snacks be plentiful, your schedules flexible and your patience strong.

We’re so grateful for this community and all the ways you’ve shown up this year. Now it’s time to trade backpacks for pool towels and head into summer.

See you in August,
Your PTO

✨ Need a little glow-up before summer? ✨
One of our amazing IA sponsors this year, Circa 79 Salon, has you covered—cuts, color, styling… basically anything that helps you walk out feeling like a whole new person.

This locally owned salon is extra special because it’s owned by an IA family, and they bring both talent and warmth to every appointment. It’s the kind of place where you go in “just for a trim” and leave feeling fabulous.

Thank you, Circa 79 Salon, for supporting IA PTO and our school!

We’re still reminiscing about our epic Travel-Themed Staff Appreciation Week! ✈️🌍
Last week, our staff took a first-class trip around the world without ever leaving campus! We wrapped up the week with stops in Italy and France — complete with a delicious pizza lunch from OV Pizza & Pints 🍕 and a bon voyage breakfast featuring French pastries generously donated by IA families as well as coffee donated by one of our amazing sponsors, Brueggers! ☕🥐

To cap off our incredible journey, we held an AMAZING raffle packed with unforgettable prizes generously donated by local businesses and IA families! Staff had the chance to win everything from stays at local hotels 🏨 to gift cards for delicious restaurants and unique shops 🍽️🛍️, plus fun local attractions and experiences 🎟️✨ It truly was the perfect grand finale to an unforgettable week! 💙

A huge thank you to our incredible families for helping make this adventure possible through donations of food, gift cards, money, and time. Your generosity helped our week soar! 🌟

As we sprint (or… casually stroll) toward the end of the school year, we’re giving a big shoutout to one of the sponsors who’s been lifting us up all year long. 💪 Today’s spotlight: our Gold Scorpion Sponsor, Block Fitness!

This IA family-owned gym keeps it real—no mirrors, no judgment, just expert coaching and a community that actually makes you want to show up. Bonus: they’ve got TWO locations now, so your excuses just got a lot weaker. 😉

📍 Located in Oro Valley Marketplace & in Catalina
📞 (520) 317-7409 & (520) 462-6768

Thank you, Block Fitness, for being part of the IA Family!

Tomorrow’s assembly is your child’s chance to dress like they’re headed anywhere but school—Hawaiian shirts, tourist tees, beachy outfits all welcome. (Just no speedos please.)

No passport required, but enthusiasm is appreciated.
