DIRECTOR'S LETTER




                                   Don Francis












                               We lost a third of our students to the economy of the pandemic.

                               Yet  we  are  #IAAStrong!  Our  incredible  students  and  teachers

                               showed  that  nothing  is  impossible.  Students  continued  to  grow

                               academically             throughout           the      school        year       as      teachers

                               scrambled to make a new kind of teaching work.




                               This     historic     year     shows       that     IAA    Sharks       will    fight    through

                               adversity  with  dignity  and  honor.  We  celebrate  each  family  for

                               sticking       together.        We     celebrate         each      student       for    not    only

                               surviving  the  pandemic,  but  choosing  to  grow  and  learn  from  it.

                               We  celebrate  each  teacher  for  all  the  extra  work  to  find  unique


                               ways to connect with their students. We celebrate the IAA spirit

                               that  perhaps  has  led  to  a  year  where  we  all  learned  more  than

                               we would have ever imagined. Go Sharks!
