Picture Day is around the corner! Please send in your photo package order form & payment to your child's teacher. Individual photos will be taken in the school gymnasium, and a class photo will be taken outdoors (on the playground), weather permitting. Please contact your child's teacher or the office if you need another order form.

Sign up for the District 81 Community Foundation's Project Heart Well 5K Run/Walk. The event will take place on Saturday, October 3rd. Visit www.projectheartwell.com to sign-up!

If your child/children will be absent from school, we ask that parents call the school office at (847) 671-0250 before 8:00am on each day of absence. Parents should expect us to contact the home when children are not in school. Thank you for your cooperation.

REMINDER: Please be sure all passengers in vehicles are wearing seat belts. Please be advised the Schiller Park Police Department will be issuing tickets to those who violate the law.

The safety of all children remains our top priority during arrival & dismissal. Please utilize the drop-off circle to unload children from vehicles. Parking in the South Lot during morning arrival is only permitted for staff.

The use of cell phones for texting or calling purposes in a school zone (including school parking lots) is a violation of state law. Please do not endanger our students. Use hand-free options only, and understand that our staff may respectfully ask you to follow the law if you are disregarding it.

All medical and dental forms are due to the office by October 15th. This is a legal requirement by the State Board of Education. Failure to return forms can result in exclusion from school. If you have concerns about the required exams and forms, please contact our School Nurse Natalie Yorty at 847-671-0250 x3111. Thank you for your support in keeping all of our Kubbies healthy and ready to learn!
