This year, IGHMS is using PTCFast.com to make the Fall Advisory Conference sign ups even easier and also faster.

Join the WEB leaders in recognizing Unity Day on Wednesday, October 23. Wear and share the color ORANGE in support of bullying prevention. Together we are united for kindness, acceptance, and inclusion.
The October Middle School PTO meeting will be Tuesday, October 22nd at 6:30 pm in the Media Center (It was previously scheduled for today and was rescheduled due to conferences). We will be discussing committees, upcoming activities and more. Be sure to mark your calendar!
DAIRY QUEEN DINE OUT NIGHT COMING AT YOU!!! Please support the school and enjoy a treat at Dairy Queen on Cahill on Tuesday, October 29th from 5-8 PM. 10% of proceeds that night will go to the Inver Grove Heights Parent Organization to help support students and teachers at IGHMS. No flyer needed, just let them know you're there to support IGHMS.
Attention all 6th-8th grade boys - If you are interested in joining the Middle School Wrestling team this year, there is an informational meeting during advisor time on Thursday, October 30th in C gym. Go to your advisor first to check in for attendance.
Sign up is now available at invergrove.feepay.com
Box Tops
REFUNDING COLLECTION TIME COMING UP!!! Please send in your Box Tops October 21-25. Advisors will have a bag in their classroom for collection. We WILL NOT be running any incentive/prize program with collections this year as the pizza parties in the past have almost cost us more money than we take in with the refunding items. Remember, money earned from Box Tops collections go towards supporting students and teachers of IGHMS.
They now have an app you can download at https://www.boxtops4education.com - with the app, you use a cell phone to scan a store receipt with participating products on it, and the money goes straight to the school. Please download and use the app to help support the group's efforts at the school, and also continue to clip physical Box Tops for as long as you see them on products.
