I A Lewis is hosting a BOOK FAIR next week in the library! There will be lots of exciting books, colorful posters, and fun trinkets available for purchase. Funds raised will be used for student requested purchases! Parents, please make plans to visit us Thursday night. See everyone soon!
Parents/guardians, please read the announcement regarding cold weather gear: While we do allow students to wear jackets to school, jackets may not be worn during the school day in hallways or classrooms. If students want to wear something warmer in the classroom, they must wear a regular crewneck sweatshirt (plain school colors or IAL or Ruston) with no pockets, zippers or hoods. Any caps, beanies, fleece/sweater headbands, or gloves worn to school must also be put away in lockers upon arrival. Thanks for your help with this!
If you have students in your homerooms they are dressed for Red Ribbon Week, please send me pictures if you think about it! We can use those for the yearbook & in posts to show parents & the community how awesome IALewis!
Parents, don't forget that Picture Day at IAL is tomorrow. Students should wear regular uniform clothes for these pictures. Thanks!
Finishing our football season with a great game vs Riser Middle is just the begining of a very busy month at I A Lewis! A copy of this calendar was sent home on Friday of last week. If you did not get one or need another, please see Ms. Touchstone in the library!
Parents, please carefully review our IAL Dress Dode Policy, specifically the sections about pants/skirts/shorts (types and lengths) and outerwear. Thanks for your help with this. Please let us know if you have questions. https://5il.co/25uec

Parents, please read the attached update from Ruston High School Principal Dan Gressett outlining policies for the Hoss Garrett Stadium for the 2023-24 school year. Go Cats! https://5il.co/23wu4
Join us for our first home football game at 5:30pm on Thurs, Aug 31st. IAL 6th Graders will take on the 7th graders at RJHS. Go Rams!
Don't forget that students need to charge Chromebooks tonight. They can leave the charger at home but will need to bring the Chromebook daily to school for use. If your student did not receive a CB on Friday, it is likely that we do not have a signed Chromebook Contract from you yet (or that it was processed late in the day on Friday). The Chromebook Contract was included in the stapled set of papers given out at the beginning of school. If you need another copy, these are available in the main office. Thanks!
On Friday, all IAL students received a Counselor’s Newsletter and a booklet Guide for Parents to the Internet & Social Media. Please ask your student and review this important information. Also, tomorrow is the final deadline for online t-shirt orders. http://tommystees.com/ial_round4_23-24/shop/home
Every Friday, students may wear jeans with a Ruston or IAL spirit shirt for $1. This begins tomorrow, Fri, Aug 25th. Jeans should not have writing, rips, or tears, and if jean shorts are worn, they should follow the same length guidelines as regular shorts.
Parents, we have one final online store for uniform gear. If you prefer to pay with cash or check, you can pick up a paper order form at the school. All orders are due by Aug 25th.

Good evening, parents! We are so excited to welcome our 6th graders tomorrow to IAL. Drop off begins at 7:30am, and the tardy bell rings at 8am. We will issue lockers and binders NEXT week. Until then, students will carry their belongings/backpack/etc from class to class. School supplies are not taken up; they are recommended for student use. Also, PE uniforms are not needed tomorrow. We are looking forward to a great day! Welcome to the Ram Fam!
Good afternoon, Ram Fam! Please don't forget that our Prep Day is tomorrow Wed, Aug 16th from 2-4pm. This is a come and go event. See you there!
