To the Island Lake Community -

It is with deep sadness and regret that the ILPTA and school administration have made the decision to postpone our International Night event.

While we would love nothing more than to bring together representatives of the diverse and vibrant cultures that make our community so wonderful, the safety of our community is of greatest concern.

The Island Lake community is kind, welcoming, and generous. People at Island Lake care about each other and the greater community. We are working together to develop good kids. None of that changes based on the decision to hold or not hold an event.

Take care of yourselves and your people. We will share more information as appropriate about a rescheduled event.

Sincerely,
Mike Kinsella
ILPTA President

In just two days, we have collected over 300 pounds of food and home goods at school for the Ralph Reeder Food Shelf!

The generosity of this community is so heartening. Thank you!!!

We still have two more school days to collect! Bring diapers (5/6), soap, TP, and non-perishable food to the front of ILE this week and we will drop it off at Ralph Reeder for you!

All of this, plus your monetary donations, go directly to support the people in this community. Thank you!!
