TECHNOLOGY - any student still possessing I.H.S. technology from the original school closure must return these items by the end of September. Students can drop off any computers, chargers, calculators or other devices in the office.
From VLN: We are currently experiencing a technical issue with the VLNStudents.com site which is causing login errors and in some cases slowness in loading of pages within the portal for students who are able to get in. Our Tech Support Team is working to resolve this issue as quickly as possible and I will provide more information on the resolution once I have an update. I know issues like these are disruptive and frustrating for everyone and I can assure you we are working hard to resolve the root cause of the problem.
SPORTS SPECTATORS - As per the recent regulations set forth by the state, spectators at sporting events will be very limited. There are very few tickets available for the home Football games. These tickets will be distributed to only the families of our seniors for football, cheerleading, and band. The number of tickets will vary with each game. With our other outdoor events, entrance to the event will be capped at 250. There will be no spectators at our indoor events such as Volleyball and Jr. High girls’ basketball due to that number being set at 25. In an effort to allow of the fans to see the events that are limited to spectators, we will be live streaming Iroquois Football, Volleyball, and Jr. High Basketball on our Youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyosU9W0Sl0mOHVF5urOV_g

Please see the note released yesterday from PIAA in their Newsletter:
"The PIAA continues to receive numerous questions regarding event capacities and allowing spectators. This is not a PIAA rule but is stated in the Governor’s target mitigation order: The Order applies to school sports.· Indoor sporting events and gatherings of more than 25 persons are prohibited.· Outdoor sporting events and gatherings of more than 250 persons are prohibited. Sports-related activities at the PK-12 level are limited to student-athletes, coaches, officials, and staff only. Band and cheer are also allowed in a sports setting, but individuals involved in such activities count towards gathering limitations and must comply with face covering order and social distancing guidelines. Visitors and spectators are prohibited from attending in-person sports-related activities."
