PTO: Stuff to Do This Week!



** Buy Your Tickets to the Spring Event HERE **
(Get your Tickets before Sales Close on March 3rd)

Auction LIVE NOW!  
  • The silent auction at the March 12th event will be virtual this year so that non-attendees can bid simultaneously with people at the event. 
  • Review the auction site often, as we will be adding new items every Monday leading up to the event! 
  • The auction will end on Saturday 3/12/22 at 9pm.
  • You will need to create an account to bid on the items. You are allowed to utilize the PROXY BID function with your max bid and it will automatically bid for you at the predetermined increments. Otherwise, you may manually enter a bid.

    PLEASE NOTE: The LIVE AUCTION at the event will only feature the coveted VIP Parking spots, teacher experience days and NEW opportunities including the PE & music teacher experiences!

    PAYMENTS: If you purchase a BUY IT NOW item, you will receive an email after you have won an item to arrange payment(s) and pickup of the item(s).

Spring Assessment Calendar

During the months of March, April and May, we administer several assessments. I have linked the District 181 Assessment calendar so you can specifically view those that are taking place. 

With the Ramadan holiday upon us, we recognize that some of our students will be fasting during the school day.  We will be allowing students who are fasting in April the option to take the Illinois Assessment of Readiness early, prior to Spring Break. 

If your child is fasting and you would like them to participate in testing early, please notify the classroom teacher.  We will work together to ensure that students are provided with this opportunity.
