Get to Know Mrs. Rains
Cindy Rains is the kind of person that
enjoys building meaningful relationships and making a difference in people’s lives. Mrs. Rains contributes
much to Immaculata – including
teaching Middle School Social Studies, running a Junior Historians Club,
and assisting students in the Learning
Center.
Mrs. Rains is also the proud parent of
a 14 year-old daughter, who graduated
from Immaculata last year.
When Mrs. Rains is not in the school,
she enjoys cooking new dishes, reading, and gardening. Also, for the past
20 years, Mrs. Rains has coached
swimming for the Special Olympics.
Before Mrs. Rains began teaching, she
worked in development for the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill

When Halloween is Through
Class/Group Picture Day
Happy Halloween! Enjoy the day and
your costumes! If once it’s over, you
were planning on throwing your costume into the attic to be lost to time,
think about donating your costume to
the ICS Drama Club and our Spirit
Elective (who help work on our Friday
Morning Prayer Skits). With your donations, we can make our skits even
more fun and creative! —Mr. Tobin

Pictures will be taken of each homeroom as a class and of Junior Choir,
Liturgical Choir, and Band. Due to
some scheduling constraints, the band
picture needs to be taken at 7:30am.
Younger band members are already at
school by that time, but all Middle
School Band students must be in the
courtyard with the band teachers by
7:30am if they wish to be included in
the band picture.
Picture order forms to pre-order class
pictures, band, and/or choir pictures
have been distributed. Extra order
forms are available in the front office.
