IC Imagine,
As we wrap our Winter seasons, I want to say that we could not be more proud of our basketball and cheer programs. Our Upper School Girls and Boys basketball teams had their best season in school history with our girls going 8-4 and our boys finishing with a 9-3 record. Our cheer teams also made leaps and bounds bringing incredible energy to our home games and establishing a routine for our new school fight song. The Middle School girls and boys basketball teams will be finishing their season this coming week and are preparing for the end of season Conference Tournament.

Kirby’s Youth Sports Leagues Kirby's Kids is our athletics program's outreach into the local youth sports leagues. Through Kirby's Kids we will increase our programming opportunities for our elementary students by partnering with various organizations in the local community for different youth sports opportunities. This will allow students to play with their peers and create an avenue for our student-athletes as they grow into our middle and upper school programs. The success of Kirby's Kids team will require heavily on volunteer coaches and parental support. All current information can be found on our website.
