• Halloween Parade (weather permitting) we will have a school Halloween parade at 1:00 on Friday, October 30.  We will walk around Memorial Park, socially distant. We invite parents to come watch our parade, standing anywhere in Memorial Park.  Please observe social distancing from anyone not in your family. 

REMINDER when picking up your child during the school day for an appointment, please pull up to the yellow curb (bus zone) so the office can see you/your vehicle.  Call 815-883-8916 – we will send your child to your vehicle upon identification.
