Middle School Families, 

Tonight is our 8th Grade Formal! Our students are so excited for this opportunity. We want to give a big thank you to the following business sponsors for their generous support of this event:

Bleu Iris - an event venue in downtown Asheville

Homegrown - a local eatery + catering services

Middle School Imagineers Exciting news! We're thrilled to announce the launch of our Imagineers program for middle schoolers. Information about the program can be found here. Students have already received their applications, which are due by April 26th. Following the deadline, our team will review all submissions and make selections. We will select one dedicated representative from each advisory group to form our team of Middle School Imagineers. We aim to kickstart our meetings with the chosen Imagineers in May. 

We are excited to partner with Booster to host our first-ever Kingfisher Fun Run fundraiser on Thursday, May 16th.  Booster specializes in integrating fitness, leadership, and character into a fun, school-wide, fundraising event. The Kingfisher Fun Run will be held outside on the grass field near the upper parking area.  Family and friends from anywhere can support your student and IC Imagine by giving pledges towards the number of laps a student runs or walks. Every student can participate in the Fun Run, with or without pledges. Families are invited to join the fun - come cheer on the students or volunteer during the event.

Our goal is to raise $25,000 toward an outdoor digital sign and other needs identified by the school.  Make sure to visit the Kingfisher Fun Run webpage and lookout for more information in the coming weeks.  For now, mark your calendars with these key dates!

What about the Derby?  For families who may recall the Kingfisher Derby from previous years, the Kingfisher Fun Run is replacing that event.  We believe this event is more inclusive for our community because every student can participate and every family can support regardless of financial contribution.  Additionally, the Kingfisher Fun Run can easily be shared with your family and friends to ask for support.  Lastly, this event brings grade levels together to encourage fitness, team building and social interaction.  When students, volunteers, staff and the great IC Imagine community come together and work towards a common fundraising goal, our school is strengthened!
