This Week at Windsor...

Windsor Families,

Our first full week of school was great! It has been so wonderful getting to know your children, Mrs. Soprano and I have had the opportunity to go into most of the classrooms and read a few stories, this is one of our favorite things to do each year!

Please read, extremely important information regarding arrival/dismissal-

- In the mornings, we are seeing a large number of cars parking on Windsor Drive. You need to park beyond Windsor's property which includes the green space behind the school and walk to the student entrances. Staff will ask you to move your car if you are parked along school property. We need to keep the car line moving in the morning to ensure all students arrive on time and safely.

- When the weather is bad or the temperature changes, we will see an increase in the amount families driving to drop off their children.

- If you are looking for more information about what morning drop and go should look like, please check out the video below.

We greatly appreciate your cooperation with all of the above important procedures.

Have a wonderful wildcat weekend,

Mrs. Anastacio and Mrs. Soprano

Hello! Welcome back to another amazing school year! My name is Vicky Stella, and I’m the Student Learning Coach at Windsor. Each week in Mrs. Anastacio’s newsletter I’ll be sharing something you can do with your children that home that can continue their problem solving or STEM skills throughout the weekend!

For this week, I wanted to let our Wildcats know that the Greg Tang Summer Challenge that was offered before the end of the school year has been extended. Summer doesn’t officially end until September 21, so this challenge will continue! Information can be found by clinking this link: Greg Tang Summer Challenge. For our newest kindergarten Wildcats, you will be learning all about these fun puzzles over the next few weeks so you can be ready for our next Greg Tang Challenge in October!! Please contact me if you have any questions (vstella@sd25.org). Have a great weekend!

Ukraine Independence Day takes place on August 24 and it marks Ukraine's declaration of independence from the U.S.S.R. in 1991. The day is celebrated with great enthusiasm and is the most popular day of the year for Ukrainians around the world.

For more information, visit: https://www.state.gov/ukraines-independence-day/

Established by Congress in 1971 to commemorate the 1920 passage of the Nineteenth Amendment granting women the right to vote, and to encourage the ongoing efforts for women’s equality in all areas of American life.

If your child will be absent or tardy, please call the absence hotline at 847-506-6999 x7700. While you may also email the teacher, there are times that the teacher will not read email prior to school starting. Please always contact the hotline first! We cannot stress this enough! Please also make every effort for your child to arrive at school on time. Missing the beginning of the school day often has a negative impact on students for the rest of the day. Please contact the office if your child will be tardy or needs to leave early!

Student Health: If your child has tested positive for COVID-19, you can notify the school nurse for guidance regarding how many days it is recommended to stay home (5 days with day 0 as onset of symptoms or test day if asymptomatic) per Illinois Department of Public Health.
