School Is Open!

School opened today with no problems! Unlike our neighbors, we had a smooth on time start with our buses and all children arrived at school safely and on time! Teachers were waiting and activities began immediately. It is so interesting to watch school begin with the PBIS program since children begin the year learning the behavioral expectations for school such as how to enter the building, how to ride the school bus, how the lunch period operates and how to move from class to class. This practice proactively teaches students what is expected and required of them. This practice and reteaching as needed leads to a much more orderly and safe school environment.

In just a few short days we will be in full swing with athletics and other activities underway for the fall season. Open Houses will begin shortly in each building and soon it will seem as we never left for the summer!

Thanks to parents for following the established driving and drop off procedures today at both school sites. There were no major problems and things were safe and slow! Please be aware that the DuPage County Sheriff's Department is actively patrolling Plainfield Road around the Lakeview Campus and aggressively issuing citations for speeding and school zone cell phone use. We appreciate their efforts to keep our students safe!

Thanks for all of your help to make this opening day a great one!
