ILMS Adds Games to Lunch

Posted on 09/16/2019

Gaming is going old school at lunch time!
Enter any lunch period at ILMS and you'll see students eating their meals with a side of Uno, Connect Four and more.
Early this school year, students asked ILMS administrators if they could bring in cards and board games to play at lunch. Co-Principal Missy Mefford did them one better and used money from the ILMS student fund to purchase a variety of games and decks of cards.  
Mefford says she's glad to see students wanting to engage. She says, "ILMS students are not permitted to play on their phones at lunch. Learning new games like these gives them a great way to connect socially." 
The games are stored in a bin in the cafeteria. We just ask that students keep track of all game pieces and put them away for the next lunch period to enjoy.
