Happy Halloween from the IHE Office Staff!
All Halloween candy donated to the school for Trunk or Treat was handed out to all of our awesome students on Halloween. 

Refrigerator Needed:
One of the refrigerators in the teacher's lounge has stopped working. We are looking for a working refrigerator so that staff can store their lunches in it. Please contact the office if you have one that you can donate. Thank you!
