Our Ingram 1st and 2nd graders had a fantastic learning experience on Wednesday!
The National Theatre for Children visited our school to perform their interactive show, Once Upon a Flame.
In the story, Tinkerfred wants to bake a cake—but none of his natural-gas appliances are working! Along his journey, he meets a cast of fun characters who teach him what natural gas is, how it’s formed, how it gets to our homes, the ways we use it, and how to stay safe around it.
Our students loved the performance and came away with valuable science and safety knowledge.

🇺🇸 Happy Veterans Day! 🇺🇸
Last night, our J.R. Ingram family came together for a wonderful Veterans Day concert to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. 💙❤️
A big thank you to the Lee County High School JROTC Color Guard for presenting our colors so beautifully during the program — we loved having you with us! 👏
Today and every day, we are so thankful for our veterans and the sacrifices they’ve made to protect our freedom. Thank you for your service! 🇺🇸
