Last April 23rd, our school celebrated the Spanish Language Day.

At ISA we come together and share our love of the language. In addition to celebrating and promoting the language, we are also proud of uniquely diverse culture at ISA.

Paleontology is a great opportunity to teach kids about biology, evolution, and scientific thinking. When kids are intrigued, their brains are especially primed to learn the answers. Fossil making collab with Mr. Raths and 8th graders #ISSedu #paleontology
