You can prepay for a picture day order online. Please see the form below. If your child misses picture day on Tuesday, our retake day will be on November 1st.

The students did a wonderful job on the fire drill with the Carol Stream Fire Department. They were quick and quiet as they excited the building! We are very proud of them!

On Tuesday, students participated in a lock and teach drill. This is when the teacher closes and locks their door and continues teaching. A Lock & Teach schedule is used to clear the halls. This could be for a medical emergency, or a situation we do not want children to witness. It is a way to account for all our students and to keep them in eye contact without disrupting teaching and learning. The students did a great job on their first Lock & Teach drill!

Today PTA Hot Lunch forms will be going home via backpack mail. The forms and money are due Tuesday October 4th and the first hot lunch will be on Wednesday October 12. No late forms will be accepted. Ordering hot lunch for your child is optional. If you are not interested, continue to send lunch to school with your child on these hot lunch days. Be on the lookout for this form in your child's backpack today.

Please contact the PTA if you have any questions.

Please call the office with any changes to your child's after school pick-up plans. This will allow for a quicker and safer dismissal. Thank you!
