The forecast calls for cold temperatures again, so please make sure kids are dressed appropriately for the weather tomorrow. Have a great evening and stay warm! Mr. Young

Good Evening, We will be in session/in-person tomorrow (Friday, January 7). I am watching the weather forecast closely. If anything changes a separate notification will be sent out. The forecast calls for cold temperatures again, so please make sure kids are dressed appropriately for the weather tomorrow, as they head out the door. Have a great evening, stay warm, and see you all tomorrow! Mr. Young

We are excited to be back at school! We hope you all had a nice winter break! We missed you!

Thank you to the McLean County Highway Department for installing the new lights on the School Zone signs on Harrison Street for us. The lights are an added feature to help alert drivers they are entering a School Zone. The lights will be on during our "high traffic times" from 7:30am-8:30am and 2:30pm-3:30pm on school days. Please remember to use caution anytime you are driving around the school.

Good Morning! Just a heads up - buses may be running a little behind schedule today. Remember to bundle up. It's going to be cold today. Mr. Young

Welcome Back! I just wanted to share a couple reminders prior to school restarting tomorrow (Monday 1/3/22). -Tomorrow will be a full day of school - 8:15am-3:05pm. - The temperature tomorrow is expected to be cold. Please make sure students are dressed appropriately for the weather. -We are still awaiting guidance on how the recent changes in quarantine released last week by the CDC (and adopted by IDPH) will impact schools. As of right now, we will still be following all the same guidelines in place prior to break. We are looking forward to seeing everyone back tomorrow! Mr. Young

I hope everyone has a great break and look forward to seeing everyone again next week. We are still having supply chain issues so for January we will continue to post the menu for a week at a time, I am attaching the menu for the upcoming week.

Thanks again to STANGS for crashing our winter party and setting up games for our students! They had so much fun!
