January was quite the busy month between our return to school following Christmas Break, our final Admissions Open House of the year followed by our admissions application deadline, the March for Life, some snow days, and National Lutheran Schools Week!
As we meet with families applying to ILS as part of the admissions process, it is wonderful to hear more about what attracted them to Immanuel, and so much of what they share focuses both on the type of culture and community we have here at ILS, as well as the emphasis we place on the role of parents in the education of their children. It is a delight to meet so many families who share these values and desire to see their families become a part of this community.
Every month, we compile a "What we're reading..." blog post with a selection of articles that we would like to share with our community as we think about shaping and nurturing our culture together at school and at home. These are pieces that our faculty and staff have found recently to be inspiring, intriguing, encouraging, or thought-provoking. Are there things that you have read that you think others in our community may enjoy reading? Please feel free to share a link in the comments to email us any time!
Thank you for your continued partnership, and for engaging with us!
