Honoring Our Outgoing Board Members
Join us tomorrow night, Wednesday, May 3rd, for a reception to honor Mr. Nicholas Begley and Mr. Kenneth J. Ashman, who have devoted years of service to the DPS 109 Board of Education. The celebration begins at 6:15 p.m. at the District Office. Following the reception, we will welcome two new members to our Board of Education.
Look for more information soon on the below opportunity from the Deerfield Police Department!
We like to share What's Good in 109 in every newsletter, at every board meeting, and on social media as much as possible.
DPS 109 continued our now 3rd annual Arbor Day tradition of planting a tree donated by the Village of Deerfield at one of our schools! We were excited to have Ms. Gray 2nd's grade class, and some of our 4th grade leaders from South Park along with Mayor Dan Shapiro, Superintendent Simeck, Principal Faust, and Board of Education Members Mrs. Jakymiw participate in the festivities!
There was a REALLY cool initiative between Shepard, Walden, and Kipling where 7th grade ELA students were partnered up with 2nd graders and had to write a story about the younger student!
