Illini Bluffs Drama Club is proud to present Thornton Wilder's classic The Matchmaker!
The Thornton Wilder Society describes it perfectly: "Wilder’s uproarious farce about love and money, stars the irrepressible busybody, Dolly Gallagher Levi, who inspired the Broadway musical, Hello, Dolly! Through Dolly’s subtle machinations, several unlikely couples come together to find happiness in 19th-century New York."
Come March 15th & 16th at 7:30 pm or March 17th at 2:30 pm to see this classic farce performed by Illini Bluffs High School students. Tickets are $5 for students and seniors and $8 for adults.

Breaking the digital norm! Today marked our inaugural IBHS Unplugged Day, where teachers and students embraced a tech-free day. From vibrant classroom discussions to collaborative team-based learning, we ditched the screens and prioritized meaningful connections. It was a refreshing break from the screens and allowed everyone to focus on each other and strengthen the bonds within our school community! #ibtigerpride

Today, the IBMS ELA teachers kicked off their first annual Book Chats in the MS/HS Library! One of the goals of the middle school is to encourage students to become lifelong readers, and one way to do that is to have students read a novel each quarter and share that novel with other students. #ibtigerpride
