ISY Facilities Update – Summer 2021
As we approach the summer holidays, please keep the following in mind when using the facilities.
COVID-19 regulations are still in place on campus at ISY:
- Masks are required at all times, whether you are fully vaccinated or not.
- Only current students, 2021 graduates, parents, and staff are permitted on campus at this time. Alumni and non-community members will be permitted again after campus reopens fully for in-person classes.

The facilities will remain open for the summer, apart from the pool which will be closed for annual maintenance and then for a lifeguard training class the last two weeks of June. The pool will reopen July 2nd. See the schedule below for updates.
The following schedule is subject to change. Please note when making reservations: if a space does not appear, it is either full or has been blocked for a school activity.
Swimming pool lane space is limited! If you reserve a lane and cannot make it for your session PLEASE cancel your reservation by emailing lisom@isyedu.org. We ask that family members share a lane.

Athletics Blog – August 19th
As the new Athletic Director, I am excited to be here at ISY and I’m as ready as you are to start the new school year. My first blog post will be a very busy one, with information on secondary and elementary school athletics programs, as well as Session 1 ASAs. I know many parents are also excited to see what the swim programs have to offer this year so there is a special page set aside for that as well.
