A Note from the Nurse
KINDERGARTEN & 2ND GRADE PARENTS - DON'T FORGET TO TURN IN YOUR CHILD'S DENTAL FORM!
The State of Illinois requires that all students in Kindergarten and 2nd Grade submit a current Dental Exam form to the school Health Office by May 15th. These examinations must be completed within 18 months of this date. If your child has had a dental exam within this time period, please contact your dentist to request a school dental exam form to submit to the nurse. Thank you!
As a reminder, the following health forms are also required for school attendance. Forms can be accessed on the D303 website or through the links below:

Calling all 2nd grade musicians!
Over the next few weeks, every current 2nd grader will get the chance to hear a performance by members of our school orchestra AND try each of the instruments offered in our orchestra program: Violin, Viola, Cello, and Bass. Nearly 1,000 children across D303 elementary schools are involved in our elementary orchestra program!
If your child is interested in joining us, please mark your calendar for our NEW Orchestra Parent Information meeting! At the virtual meeting, you will meet your orchestra director, learn details about the program, how to register, and how to rent an instrument. Each meeting will present the same information, so please join us when you can. We look forward to meeting with you. Please join us for one of these meetings:
