Wonderful Weather...




I hope that everyone is enjoying the wonderful weather! It has been so nice to be outside and riding the bike at this time of year. We had a beautiful day in Plainfield last Saturday for the Homecoming Parade and for the Cross Country Team in Joliet. We have had a great fall sports season with both girls volleyball teams ending the year undefeated. Congratulations to the athletes and coaches, Mrs. Wrzesinski and Mrs. Wilson! Congratulations also to our boys Cross Country Team and coaches Mr. Rodda and Mr. Urbas on a banner season!


I so happy to see construction begin on the water detention pond and new bus parking lot at the Lakeview Campus. We have waited all summer for this and are happy to finally see progress. I hope that the weather cooperates and allows us to complete this task quickly. When completed we will have a new dedicated secure enclosed parking area for school buses and transportation equipment that will increase security and enhance the beauty of our school property.


The week of October 17th celebrates two valuable groups of school employees! Next week is School Bus Driver Recognition week and Principal Recognition Week. I encourage everyone to send a note of thanks for the important work that these people do safely transporting our precious students in all types of weather conditions to and from school and leading our school buildings to provide excellent learning programs for our children. Congratulations to drivers, Tom Tiede, Manny Staiger, Zak Munoz, Mike Pappas, Jim Gismondi, Paul Jonauskas, Jim Mathiasch, Twanna Anderson, Jim Hagen, Kate Nikiel, Frank Lewandowski, John Cesal and Selina Luna. Thanks to our principals, Jill Hansen, Kim Liles, Janeise Schultz and Paul Windsor for their efforts/


We continue to enjoy a very smooth start to the school year and are excited that each building has once again made AYP although the District did not make AYP this year due to the performance of a sub-group of students from the entire District. While this is frustrating we continue to be be pleased with the progress children are making academically with our RtI program. We have a talented and dedicated teaching staff that strives to provide excellence for each child!


Have a good week.
