Due to a change in school code by the Illinois State Board of Education, this school year a medical note is required for parents/guardians who select the: “MEDUE: Medical/Dental Appointment” excuse option for their student in Infinite Campus or call their student out of school for a medical/dental appointment.

The revised school code defines "valid cause" for absence as the following: Illness, including the mental or behavioral health of the student; attendance at a verified medical or therapeutic appointment; appointment with a victim services provider. Please note that the student’s absence will be marked unexcused in Infinite Campus until a medical note is provided.

We understand this is a change in practice from previous years. Please know that our front office is here to help answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Third and fourth graders are eligible for student council! Learn more about what they do and when they meet here! Exciting!

All 4th and 5th grade students will receive their IAR reports to bring home today. Please review this progress with your student.

We are currently planning the purchase of t-shirts for all of our students and staff!

Please indicate on THIS FORM what shirt size you would like for your student(s). Please complete for each student you have at Sunny Hill School.

The form can also be found here: https://forms.gle/65FE76wFKotVHk5H7

Please have some conversations with your student about respect. Use these conversation starters at home y en Español.

Read about how we are dealing with bullying. Read how we address bullying. Lea cómo interrumpimos el acoso.

It is time to get back into those summer routines! Please develop a home routine that prioritizes learning. Bathing, then reading (at least 20 minutes a day), and then bed time is one great routine. Experts recommend 9-12 hours of sleep for elementary aged students.

We will be assessing students using MAP and FastBridge through September 13. This helps us better understand your student's skills, so we can best meet their needs.

Thank you for your patience! We will let you know more as soon as we can. Our hope is that we can meet in September to get started. If you are interested in partnering with our school community express your interest here.
