It is time once again to take a survey about our school. In the last several years, we have not gotten enough responses from parents to get your survey information. The parent survey requires 20% of parents to participate in order for the school to receive your feedback summary. PLEASE take the time to fill out the survey. It closes on March 13th. The parent survey can be found at https://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/login/
Pictures of our Lost and Found items have been posted on our Facebook page. When you have a moment, please take a look to see if any of the items belong to your student. If you spot something, you can comment on the post or contact the office, and we will gladly send it home with your child. If you are attending Parent-Teacher Conferences tonight, please be sure to stop by and check out the Lost and Found table as well.
