Our daughter came to Iroquois this year as a sophomore. We liked the idea of a smaller environment and a 4 day school week.
What we didn’t anticipate is the close knit family feel. It has been such a welcoming and calming environment where each student/family and their needs are their top priority. I’m so glad we stepped out of our comfort zone and made the change.

"I like it here in Iroquois. It's the best school I've been to, and I am proud to be here. It changed my grades and improved me as a human being. In the last school I had no hope of graduating and going to college, but now I am glad to say that I set a goal for my future and plan on going into college. This school has washed off all of my doubts and made me more confident in myself. We are Iroquois!" Say H (Student)

Happy Thanksgiving!!
The Iroquois elementary student council made a "Thankful Tree" in the elementary hallway. All elementary students and staff were given a leaf to write what they were thankful for and put it on the tree.
Happy Thanksgiving!! We hope your family enjoys great food, great times, and great fellowship! We Are Iroquois!!
Around 100 students and loved ones attended Read N Roll this morning. Everyone enjoyed a cinnamon roll and juice while reading or playing reading games together. Was so fun to see so many loved ones attend. If you were unable to attend this morning, we will host another one later this school year. Thank you Laci Huls for making the delicious cinnamon rolls for us!!
Twenty-four elementary students received the top read-a-thon prize of "Pizza with the Principal" today by reading at least 350 minutes during the Read-A-Thon two-week period. These students were treated to pizza by Fire Pit Pizzeria in Huron. Thank you Fire Pit Pizzeria!!!!
Tonight the fiber optic crew accidentally cut a propane line at the school. There were no injuries and there is no danger to the school.
We WILL have school on time tomorrow morning. The plan is to repair the line in the morning. It might be a bit chillier in morning but should not be too bad. When I arrive in the morning we will assess the situation. If we feel it is necessary to not have school, a decision will be made at that time. Let me know if there are any questions. WE ARE IROQUOIS!!
"Coming from a larger school and switching to Iroquois school was ultimately what got me through high school. Before switching to Iroquois I struggled in the bigger school district with being attentive and getting the one on one time with the teachers like I needed. Iroquois changed all that with it being a smaller district the teachers can commit there time to each student. The staff there cares about there students and want you to succeed. Although my time at Iroquois was short I am very grateful of my opportunity to have graduated from Iroquois High School. My only regret being not switching sooner!"
