The picture breaks down what shots must be included on the immunization part of the physical. There are tons of students that are missing these things! This is a State of Illinois requirement to attend. Please take the time to go get these things and if you make an appointment that will be after next week please call me and or send a confirmation of appointment. Thank you, Mrs. Head, Nurse.
Please remember that if your child is attending school at this time some of them have required paperwork that needs turned in ASAP. There were packets sent home with every child and there are updates on the schools social media and app with what is required for each grade. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
For any of the families that did not get a chromebook for each student, we have received a new shipment. You will be able to pick them up from the school from 8:30-11:00am and 12:30 till 2:00pm today 9/29 through Friday of this week. Thank you
Info for students interested in trap shooting.
From Mrs. Bowman: There are extra 2019-2020 grade school yearbooks available for purchase in the school office. The cost is $11.00. Please contact the office for more details.
Please remember that the deadline to turn in requires paperwork is quickly approaching. I know that this year has been very different from the past but the state is still requiring these things to attend school. There is a chart attached with the requirements and dates. These must be turned in to do in person learning. If you plan on doing in person learning at some point this school year we will need these for your child as well. Thank you and feel free to contact the nurse with any questions concerning these requirements. (October 8th for the physical including immunizations and eye exam)
Parents/Guardians: We are having issues with students submitting work on time or at all. Every posted assignment K-12 is due at 11:59 p.m. the day after it is assigned. For example, an assignment posted on Monday is not due until 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday.
If you are having trouble getting an assignment completed, you MUST contact your child's teacher for an extension. If a teacher has not been contacted and work is not submitted by the due date, a zero will be assigned. It will be at the teacher's discretion if he or she will take late work. The administration is supporting the grading policies of the teachers.
We encourage parents and students to look at assignments and ask questions when work is posted. Communication with your child's teacher is critical to his or her success. Please do not hesitate to reach out. Teachers are available M-F from 7:50-3:15. Teachers are not contractually obligated to answer emails or phone calls outside of these hours. This is why it is important to look at the material the day it is assigned--so teachers can contact you the following school day.
We understand these are challenging times for everyone. Our teachers are doing a phenomenal job and we appreciate the support we have received from parents and the community!
Here are some great videos that may help students and parents with Google Classroom. As always, we are here to help. Please contact your student's teacher if you need assistance.
