Spring Sports Physicals at the Teen Health Center

Is your student trying out for a spring sport?  Student athletes need a new sports physical exam every two years, and spring sports physicals are due February 10. All students can complete sports physical examinations at school with Ingraham’s Teen Health Center (THC), located in the Nurse’s office next door to Counseling. 

Sports physical appointments with the Teen Health Center require completion of both SPS Athletic Medical Form by a parent/ guardian if the student is under 18. Copies of these forms are available in English or Spanish in the THC. To make an appointment, students can stop by the Teen Health Center, call 206-205-0430, text 206-920-4352, or email rleisher@kingcounty.gov. Hurry, the schedule fills up quickly this time of year!

Ingraham Graduation Ceremony – Save the Date!

Prior to Winter Break, the district announced graduation dates for SPS high schools. Ingraham’s graduation ceremony will be on June 10 at 4:30 p.m., at the Ingraham Stadium (also known as the Northwest Athletic Complex).

Due to stadium capacity, each senior will receive four tickets for family/friends to attend graduation inside the stadium. Tickets will be distributed at Senior Checkout on June 8. There are no additional tickets available, and the school is not able to manage unused tickets after they are dispersed.

Please do not call the school to request more tickets. There is an overflow area just outside the fence on the north end of the field, where non-ticketed guests can view the ceremony, which usually runs about sixty minutes. The ceremony will be live streamed on YouTube for those who are unable to attend. That link will be provided on the Ingraham website a day or two before the ceremony. More information to come later this Spring, so stay tuned!

Bright Futures – Who are we? What do we do?

We are a student support program led by a committee of Ingraham staff and parent volunteers who work together to directly help over 200 Ingraham students experiencing food and housing insecurity.  Our goal is to not only meet the basic needs of these students, but to ensure access to the full high school experience with “extras” like dance tickets, yearbooks, college visits, and more. Did you know that inside the school there is a room where our students in need can pick up essentials like clothing & shoes, backpacks & school supplies, warm coats & gloves, and a variety of toiletries? We also provide food support over weekends and holidays and help with cafeteria debt. We are completely funded by donations from our community, and we are hosting our annual Fundraising Party on Thursday, March 19^th. Please mark your calendar and look out for more details coming soon! Check out our website for more ways to help, or DONATE NOW to help us inch closer to our fundraising goal.  If you’d like to learn more about the Bright Futures program and about how you can get involved, please reach out to Michele Fowler at foibrightfutures@gmail.com.

College Representative Visits

Students!  One of the more important opportunities available every fall are the College Admissions Rep visits to Ingraham High School. College Admissions Representatives from campuses across the state and country are scheduled to visit IHS and meet with interested students in grades 9-12 (students only). We already have several visitors on the schedule, and they are very excited to meet you. This is one of the few opportunities available to meet the person who may be reading your college application, ask questions about the campus, and gather helpful information to use during your college research and the admission/application process. These visits are especially helpful for seniors who are about to begin the college application process.

Students are required to sign-up to attend these sessions and do so via their Naviance/High School and Beyond Plan accounts.

To sign-up: Please log in to your Clever account

• Select Naviance 
• Select Colleges, then college visits 
• Select View Details and register for the college you want to attend! 

Then write down the visit on your planner or personal calendar. On the date and time of the visit, come down to the library and meet the representative!  You are welcome to stay for a portion of the visit or the entire visit before heading back to class.

Please continue checking the visit section as new college visits are added.

Parents: Visit the Ingraham website under Resources for information College Visits

Student parking is in the lot off Meridian and the south section of the south parking lot next to the fields.  Staff/Visitor parking is next to the auditorium/upper gym entrance, as well as in the south parking lot near the tennis courts.  Do not park in the Helene Madison parking lot.  Cars may be ticketed and/or towed if you are illegally parked in a accessible parking spot (without the appropriate parking permit) or in a fire lane (yellow or red curbs). 

School Communication

Ingraham uses various methods to communicate information out to students and families:

• Students, please start checking your SPS email inbox daily for information from school and read the Friday bulletins. 
• Schoology pages
• Talking Points: A text-based system that sends translated messages to your phone.
• Principal Newsletter: A personal message from Principal Zack Elvig, sent on Mondays.
• Friday Bulletins:  We email the school bulletin weekly via a system called School Messenger. It is always updated on the Ingraham website. Occasionally, we hear from parents/guardians who say they are not receiving the bulletin or have suddenly stopped receiving them.  It is usually an email filter issue, or you have inadvertently unsubscribed.  Please manage your SPS communication preferences
