We have had such an exciting month at IDMS!

The Spelling Bee and STEAM Night were a huge success due to the coordinators (Careen Derise and Mary Servino, respectively), the teachers, Mrs. Bella, the custodians, security, Jr. Responders, parent volunteers and all the participants!  

Spelling Bee Winners

Amy C, 6th Grade - 3rd Place

Angelle D, 6th Grade - 2nd Place

Haley N, 5th Grade - 1st Place

Haley will now participate in the Connecticut Spelling Bee on March 9th at the University of Saint Joseph. Good luck!

Additionaly, Haley and Angie will participate in the city-wide Spelling Bee in the spring. You go girls!

We wish we had a photo of this, but we didn't know IDMS had a winner...Mrs. Negri, our Art Teacher, encouraged students to present their best artwork for a "Fire Prevention" themed poster contest. Our own, Arianny I., Grade 4, won the city-wide contest. Her artwork and message, will now go on to the state level. Good luck!

"Kiss-A-Pig" contest is back! (January 23rd through February 27th) For a quarter, your child can buy a Hershy Kiss. Proceeds help defer the 8th Grade trip to Washington. The class with the most sales, earns a visit with a pig or a 'pig-out' ice cream party. Hmmmmm.....What will the winning class choose?
