School Spirit
Innisdale has a very close-knit and proud school body, with a very strong sense of school spirit. Right from the beginning of Grade 9, students are taught to be proud of their school and its community. One of the first ways this is established is through Grade Nine Orientation, in which all the Grade 9's, accompanied by a group of Grade 11 and 12 leaders walk to Park Place for a day of fun, games, and music. Innisdale also has numerous spirit days and buy-outs through the school year. These buy-outs include The Terry Fox Run, and the Invaders' many home football games.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or spirit:
“I go to school to youth to learn the future.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Oh! thou clear spirit of clear fire, whom on these seas I as Persian once did worship, till in the sacramental act so burned by thee, that to this hour I bear the scar; I now know thee, thou clear spirit, and I now know that thy right worship is defiance. To neither love nor reverence wilt thou be kind; and e’en for hate thou canst but kill; and all are killed. No fearless fool now fronts thee.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
