FEBRUARY UPDATE (Feb 10)

BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT on Saturday, Feb 13

Our Swordsmen have ended the season with an impressive 8-4 winning record!  We are hosting a tournament this Saturday with Thales-Rolesville, Thales-Apex, and St. Raphael.  We hope that a lot of IA students attend in their spiritwear to cheer on their basketball friends!  Admissions is FREE for IA students and staff! Regular admission for the all day tournament is $10 for adults but only $5 to enter for the championship game. All children 17 and younger get in free. The location is the gym of Celebration Church at 8700 Capital Blvd (just north of Durant and Capital).  Below is the schedule of games and here is a secret - we are definitely going to win our first round game.  We have won this season against every team in the tournament but it will be a competitive game for whichever team we meet in the Championship round.   

Schedule:
9:50     Opening Prayer and National Anthem
10:00   Thales-Rolesville vs. St. Raphael
11:00   Iron Academy vs. Thales-Apex
1:00     Consolation game for teams that did not win in first two games
2:30     Championship game for winners of first two games

BOXTOPS are due by Thursday, Feb 25

The BoxTops people only send out payments twice per year and it is now time to send in our BoxTops to get our check!  There are Ziploc bags pinned to the the bulletin board in every classroom for your son to place his BoxTops.  Feel free to take the BoxTops off of items still in your pantry! :)  Thank you very much to Kelley Thompson, mother of Will in 9th grade, for counting and bundling our BoxTops.
