From the Attendance Office ~ Please remember to call the attendance office if your child will not be in school. That is a big help to us. Please also remember how important it is to send notes to school with your student regarding changes in after school plans. Notes are appreciated the morning of. Please make every effort to get your child to school on time. It is always best for our students to start their day on a positive note. Our tardies are exceedingly numerous and your efforts to get here before 8:20 are greatly appreciated.
Parent-to-Parent Network (P2P) ~ As busy families, it's harder than ever to connect with other parents experiencing the same pleasures–and challenges!–involved in raising our kids. Building community in our schools and as a district helps us develop friendships and support each other. The District's Parent-to-Parent (P2P) Network exists for that very purpose, and I hope you have been able to attend some P2P programs this year. If your calendar allows, the last P2P program of sounds like fun:
Moms Need to Laugh
The D96 Parent-to-Parent Network is inviting all moms to The Grove Country Club (formerly Hillcrest), 3217 Rt. 53, Long Grove, at 10:30 a.m. on Fri., Apr. 12, for a program presented by Second City-trained professional keynote Sally Edwards. This program is just for fun–for moms who could use a good laugh and a comedian's insight into "women's life stages' and "the secret to a good life." Don't miss this chance to meet other District 96 moms and enjoy some time together. The program is FREE. Guests also have the option to stay for lunch afterward if they choose ($18, including beverage, tax, and tip; order when seated from a menu including salads and sandwiches). DO YOU PLAN TO ATTEND?
Bernie's Book Drive ~ Children can start bringing books in for our gently used book drive on April 15th. The kids are getting excited to reach our goal of collecting 4,000 books!
