Fundraiser Volleyball Tournament
Dear Marie Murphy Families,
We wanted to send out a friendly reminder that our volleyball tournament fundraiser event is taking place this Friday from 6:30 to 8:30 PM.
Team Players: Please remember to bring a water bottle with you to the event. One slice of pizza is included with your entry fee.
Additional Students/Parents: We will be selling slices of pizza for $5, while supplies last. There will be concessions on sale as well.
We will have a raffle with some fun prizes! Tickets are $2 each or 3 for $5.
Please remember to have your child bring cash to the event.
We look forward to a fun filled evening!
Thank you for supporting the 8th grade graduation committee!
Summer Enrichment Programs (SEP)
We're in the middle of the sign-up period for our Summer Enrichment Programs (SEP). You can access the registration link until Friday, March 22, on the Wilmette District 39 website. The summer classes cater to K-7 grade students. Take a look at the Summer class offerings brochure online at SEP Class Offerings 2024. If teachers have recommended R&R (Review & Reinforcement) classes for your child, register them for the suggested subjects. The R&R recommendations are based on classroom performance, MAP scores, and curriculum-related assessments. Please sign up your child for their current grade level in the 2023-2024 academic year, not their future grade.
The Avoca handles transportation for its students attending the Summer programs, not Wilmette District 39. To arrange for the Avoca Summer bus service, get in touch with Dawn Scaramuzza in the Student Services office at scaramuzzad@avoca37.org or 847-728-4142.
2023-2024 Illinois 5Essentials Survey Open!
This annual survey is given to all staff, students in fourth grade and up, and caregivers to gather feedback on our academics, overall climate and connection to one another, and leadership (at the building level and as a district). This input is combined to create an overall "grade/rating" for our school on our State Report Card. The real value of the 5Essentials survey is our ability to look at the feedback and set goals for where and how we'd like to improve our practices and systems. Take the survey here.
Reminder about Election Day
Election Day is Tuesday, March 19. If approved, Avoca 37’s referendum will:
- Address safety/security needs and facility challenges at Avoca West by replacing it with a new school that is equal to the quality of education we provide our students.
- Create space to address learning needs at Marie Murphy
- Complete all necessary life, safety, and maintenance upgrades at Marie Murphy to keep it in good working condition.
