IC Imagine Families,
Open House is next Monday, August 5th see the schedule below.
A huge thank you to all who have logged into Infinite Campus to set up or access their Parent Portal. This is a required step for all families, so if you haven’t done so, please make it a priority to complete today. (This way, if you have questions, we can help you prior to Open House.) Also, Infinite Campus has its own app, and we highly recommend downloading it. Simply visit your App Store and get Campus Parent. [Click to learn more]
Today, July 31st, is the last day to submit your application for the Asheville Outlets morning bus pick-up. Families will be notified tomorrow, Thursday, August 1st, if they received a spot. This is a wonderful way to avoid the morning drop off line! [Click to learn more and apply].
September lunches are available to order starting tomorrow! The menu and other lunch information is posted on our Lunches webpage. To place an order, log into your Parent Portal account, navigate to the School Store and then select the IC Imagine School Store. From there, locate and select the Lunches Store.

ATTENDANCE & ENROLLMENT
Attendance is critically important to student success! Our first day of school is Wednesday, August 7th. If you know your child will be absent when school begins, please email enrollment@icimagine.org.
From experience, we know decisions related to school enrollment can alter quickly during the summer based on situations and relocations related to employment and family/student needs. If your child(ren) will not return to IC Imagine next year, please notify us immediately by sending an email to enrollment@icimagine.org.
Lastly, the Attendance Policy (Policy 401) has been updated. A couple of new items to point out is that K-8 students picked up after 3:50 pm who are not registered with ASCEND or participating in an after-school activity will incur a late pick up fee of $10/day. Middle School has new attendance make-up requirements. [Click to learn more]

KINGFISHER KICKOFF AND KINGFISHER KRUSH RELEASE EVENT
SAVE THE DATE for this event at The Mule at Devil’s Foot Beverage Company (131 Sweeten Creek Rd., Asheville). We are grateful to have the unique opportunity to collaborate with Asheville-based Devil's Foot Beverage Company to design our own custom can and beverage. Single cans and 4-packs will be available for purchase. All proceeds from the sale of these sodas directly benefit IC Imagine. This event is a wonderful way to build community with fellow IC Imagine families while supporting a local business who will be donating a percentage of in-house sales from the event back to our school. Invite your family and friends as everyone is welcome to attend!
As we approach the start of school, if you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your School Level Principal.
