IC Families,
Our school has been disinfected, and staff and students have had a day to rest and be apart. We’re ready to welcome everyone back as school resumes tomorrow at IC School.
Moving forward, surfaces will continue to be frequently disinfected, and students will be reminded of proper handwashing, hygiene, and healthy habits—especially when it comes to illness.
Students should be fever free without fever reducing medicine for 24 hours to return to school. Please email Mrs. Crook and Mrs. Field or call the school office to report their absence.
Thank you for your support and partnership as we work together to keep our IC community healthy and safe. 💙🙏
Blessings,
Mrs. L. Field
Due to a high number of illnesses in our IC School community, we want to help keep everyone healthy and safe.
Families interested in Preschool and Kindergarten registration may drop off registration materials directly at the school office rather than bringing children to the originally scheduled Open House.
Our Open House has been rescheduled to:
Tuesday, February 10
4:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.
We look forward to welcoming you then and inviting you to explore all that IC School has to offer our Preschool and Kindergarten students.
Thank you for your understanding, and we hope everyone stays well!
Blessings,
Mrs. Laurie Field, Principal
Mrs. Jody Osier, Preschool Director
Mrs. Carrie Shaver, Preschool
Mrs. Kristy Wilde, Kindergarten

Hello IC Families,
School Health Update
To help stop the spread of illness, there will be NO SCHOOLat IC SCHOOL on Tuesday, February 3.
At this time, illness has affected 34.9% of our students and 28% of our staff. This break is an important opportunity for students and staff to rest, recover, and regain strength. Proper rest plays a big role in helping lower illness in our school community.
This pause will also allow our team to clean and disinfect classrooms and shared spaces for when we return to learning.
If your child is sick tomorrow afternoon and would be gone on Wednesday, we ask that you email Mrs.Crook and myself. ann.crook@iccharlescity.org and laurie.field@iccharlescity.org
Thank you for your understanding and support as we work together to care for the health of our IC School family. Stay well!
Blessings,
Mrs. L. Field

Hello IC Families!
What a great week we had for Catholic Schools Week! Thank you for sharing your children with us.
Our Knights of Columbus are starting a new program called "Dads at the Door". "Dads at the Door" is a school-based initiative where fathers and male volunteers stand at school entrances to greet students with high-fives, smiles, and encouragement to start their day positively. This program aims to boost student morale, improve behavior, and strengthen the connection between families and schools. They will be doing this every Monday and Friday starting tomorrow, Monday, Feb. 2. They will be outside greeting our students as they come into the building.
Students will continue their FAST testing this week. A good nights rest and breakfast can help them prepare for the tests best, along with encouragement to do their best.
Have a great Sunday evening and thank you for choosing IC School.
Blessings,
Mrs. L. Field

It's a great week to be a Wildcat!!

Due to the temperatures this morning, the students will have a prayer service in the school gym at 9:15 a.m.. Father will still have daily mass at the church.
Blessings,
Mrs. L. Field
Catholic Schools Week has begun! We had a great attendance and bidding on the auction items at last night's Development Boad Dinner. They raised over $20,000 for IC School! Thank you!
This morning our students led mass and Mike Thome was announced as our IC Wildcat Hall of Fame recipient. We invite you to attend the Sciene Fair tonight from 5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. Tomorrow night the IC PTO is sponsoring a family night event playing BINGO at 6:00 p.m. Student dress up day for tomorrow is Hats off to Kindness!
Human Growth and Development will begin soon in religion class. We align this state requirement with our Catholic beliefs and use Family Life curriculum. If you would like to review this curriculum , they can be made available in the office during Catholic Schools Week events for you to preview or by contacting the school office. The letter attached to this email expalins a bit more about this program.
We are looking forward to a great week celebrating our school and Catholic Education!

Fr. Tom is on retreat this week. Tomorrow will be a prayer service and we will hold it in the gym.
We are looking forward to Catholic Schools Week next week. We want to FILL THE CHURCH for mass on Sunday at 10:30 a.m. to kick off the week please join us . If your child has a mass part their information went home with them today.
