Eight members of Accent had an extraordinary experience, thanks to the Red Devil Education Foundation! These students traveled to Wausau to take part in the Jazz Festival hosted at UW-Stevens Point. The professional jazz vocal group, MPACT, listened to all participating groups and gave each group a professional clinic. In addition, two of our students, Aidan Bach and Arianna Sabec, sang solos and received a clinic with one of the members of MPACT. The day-long event was followed by a performance by MPACT in the evening. A huge thank you to the Red Devil Education Foundation for funding such an outstanding event!
It's National Administrative Professionals' Week! We are thankful to have the best at Ironwood!

The National Honor Society was formed in 1921 “to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate desire for service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in the high school pupils in the nation.” Ironwood High School received its charter in 1922 and is one of the oldest in the nation. Election to this society is a very high honor. This year’s NHS Induction Ceremony was held yesterday, on April 17th. Our congratulations to our current members of the National Honor Society of Luther L. Wright. We are proud of you and you joined a long and distinguished tradition!

An original Ironwood Area Schools Sauna Stove, was built by students in Mrs. Stehlik's Advanced Metal Fabrication class. Tristan Laabs built the body of the stove, Dale Eades fabricated the door assembly and Talan Harju mastered TIG welding stainless steel to fabricate a water tank for the stove. These guys are very talented, and work very well together. The stove lives at the Laabs' residence now, in the family sauna. IHS welding students will complete 2 more Sauna Stoves this semester.
