no it is not because

Electrons in orbit around an atomic nucleus usually come in pairs, having opposite spin and hence having magnetic poles pointing in opposite directions, resulting in no net magnetism for the atom. Elemental iron has unpaired electrons making it magnetic. When the iron combines with sulphur, electrons from the iron atoms pair with those of sulphur atoms.

Two days ago we did a lab study on mixing iron and sulfer. When you mix both with the same amounts, people said theirs was still magnetic. But me and my partner, ours wasn't. I think we messed up though :]

No, iron sulphide is obtained when iron filling and sulphur powder is being heated . iron will lose its magnetic property as it is no longer iron.
