On Saturday, Indian River High School hosted Operation Military Families! Operation Military Families allowed for our district's military families to participate in information sessions and fun activities for students. Throughout the evening, families were able to get complimentary family portraits taken by Lifetouch, enjoy performances by the U.S. Fleet Forces Band Woodwind Quartet, eat a pizza dinner and learn about resources offered to military families in our area. Special thanks to Captain Matt Frauenzimmer for taking the time to speak to our families and the Office of Family and Community Engagement for continuing their commitment to serving our community.

Mrs. Benedict’s had a special guest on Career Day, Mrs. Hatcher. She is a mother/baby nurse who showed how to care for babies. The students had a lot of fun learning how to swaddle, change a diaper and cloths. They even raced each other to see who could do this the fastest.

Miss Stafford's class loved getting to show off their science projects today! After learning about natural resources and how to care for our planet, students went home and created something new out of recyclable materials, then brought their creations in to show off. So much creativity!
