School's Mascots: Tiki and Rosie

Tiki and Rosie are our much-loved school mascots who have been a part of the IHS/PACE Program family for many years.  Tiki is a ten year old miniature horse.  She came to our school in December, 2000.  Rosie (pictured) is a Buckskin quarter horse and she has been with us since 2001.  Students enjoy feeding the horses, brushing, petting them, and running or walking them.

According to Mrs. Hellwig, PACE teacher and caregiver to Tiki and Rosie, there have been horses on the property for over 20 years.  There was a time when students were even permitted to ride them.

Mrs. Hellwig instructs two students on the safe way to pet Rosie.
