The Home-School Connection (3/23/26)

Dear ITMMS Families,
As we step into a brand-new week, we wanted to take a moment to celebrate the incredible heart of our school community. Walking through the hallways, we are constantly moved by the kindness and energy our students bring to each day. That collective spirit is what makes ITMMS such a special place for your children to learn and grow.
There is a wonderful sense of renewal in the air right now. Between the excitement of March Madness (go St. John's!) and the anticipation of baseball season, we are feeling the "home stretch" energy of spring. We are looking forward to a week filled with sunshine, teamwork, and growth.
Celebrating Last Week
Last week was a vibrant testament to the community spirit that defines us:
-
Shared Joy: From the "green" celebrations of St. Patrick’s Day to the meaningful connections and celebration associated with Eid al-Fitr, it was a week where we cultivated a strong community spririt.
-
The Debut of Emma! A Pop Musical: The absolute highlight of our week! We are so incredibly proud of the cast and crew for their brilliant performances. It was a wonderful showcase of the creativity and talent our students possess.
-
Student Growth: Whether it was an academic breakthrough or a personal milestone, our students are reaching new heights every day. Thank you for your partnership in supporting their journey.
