Immaculate Conception School, is a Roman Catholic elementary school located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baltimore in the USA. It is affiliated with Immaculate Conception Parish and located in Towson, MD.
The campus life is like pretty much any school, except for the middle school which enjoys the feel of campus life roaming to and fro the elementary and old TC for classes. It has a small private school feel to it; most middle school students will know the names of the majority of the student body. All of the middle school, as of the 2013-2014 school year, has been relocated to the Towson Catholic (TC) building. TC, which was closed in 2009 due to declining enrollment, now has had all its faculties reaped by ICS, the large sports field, auditorium, gym, first, second, and third floor. The only faculties that aren't used are the science labs on the third floor, and the weight room and locker rooms in the basement. All elementary students are housed in the original ICS building, consisting of 5 floors, basement, ground floor (which is actually the Monsignor Tinder Parish Hall which connects the elementary school and the old TC building.)
The school is accredited by the Maryland State Department of Education and, through 2014, by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. Beginning in 2010, all Archdiocese of Baltimore schools became accredited through AdvancED and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. This new accreditation will replace the MSA process.
