High School Families,

There’s a lot happening in High School as we head into one of the most spirited weeks of the year! From Homecoming and Spirit Week to opportunities to support our students, here’s what you need to know this week.

 ACTION ITEM #1

Discover StudentAccess 

IC Imagine is partnering with the Buncombe County Public Library to give our students even greater access to books and learning resources.

Through StudentAccess, IC Imagine students can use their Student ID number to access and borrow resources from the public library.

Families who do not want their student to participate must complete the opt-out process by September 18.

 ACTION ITEM #2

The Upper School Homecoming Dance is Friday, September 18, and we could use your help!

All food and drinks are provided free of charge to students, and family donations help us make that possible.

 Sign Up to Donate Food or Drinks

Donations may be dropped off at the Front Office beginning Wednesday, September 16.

  • Refrigerated items should be dropped off on Friday.

  • Pizza and Chick-fil-A should arrive around 5:45 p.m. Friday.

Thank you for helping us create a fun and memorable night for our students!

ACTION ITEM #3

There are lots of easy ways to support our Kingfisher community!

  • Give to Imagine Fund: You should have received our giving letter in the mail. IC Imagine receives approximately 30% less funding than traditional public schools, so consider a one-time or recurring gift.

  • Shop Fine Arts: Fine Arts Spirit Wear is available through September 18.

  • Love Our Staff: Help us stock the Staff Workroom with snacks and treats!

  • Eat for a Cause: Visit Chick-fil-A West Asheville on September 21 from 4–7 p.m. Order through the app using code ICI26, and 20% of qualifying mobile sales will support IC Imagine.

Every gift, purchase, and act of support makes a difference. Thank you, Kingfishers!

REMINDER

Homecoming Spirit Week Starts Monday! 

Get ready to show your Kingfisher pride September 14–18!

  •  Monday: Sports Day

  •  Tuesday: Tired Tuesday — Pajama Day

We can’t wait to see the creativity and school spirit our Upper School students bring all week!

CELEBRATION

Homecoming Week Is Almost Here! 

Homecoming is about more than a dance; it’s an opportunity for our students to celebrate their school, build traditions, and enjoy being part of the Kingfisher community.

We’re excited for a week filled with school spirit, connection, and memories with classmates. Thank you to the students, staff, and families helping make Homecoming Week special!
