IHS Fall Registration is Almost Here!

We're excited to welcome everyone back for another school year!

Please remember that ALL students are required to attend Fall Registration, including those who have been attending Independence.

Students should attend with a parent or guardian who can sign required forms and update student information. Taking care of these items at registration helps ensure a smooth start to the school year.

We look forward to seeing you there!
