Dear Walsh Families,
It's hard to believe we are already halfway through the final trimester of the school year! Progress reports will be sent home with students today. Please review these with your child and let your child's teacher know if there are any questions.
Walsh's "100 Years and Still Soaring" Celebration will be on Thursday, April 25! We will celebrate the decades with students singing and some special guests. We hope you can join us. Please see the flyer below.

Learning About Diversity ~ Miss Lemick's After School Program
Miss Lemick's after school SMART 4th and 5th grade students made "Diversity Boxes". They had a class discussion on diversity and learned what was new about their classmates. It was a blast!
Other students and staff were invited in as students stood by their boxes and answered questions.
"Earth Day Contest!!
Happy Spring! Registration packets went home to all incoming 2nd and 6th graders. Please make your physician appointments now. All required medical forms are due before the first day of the 24-25 school year.
Also, cold and flu season is not over. Refer to the attached letter of when to keep your child at home as well as how to inspect your child's hair for possible lice. This should be done frequently throughout the school year.
District 104 will now follow updated covid-19 guidance provided by IDPH and the CDC. If your child is covid positive, your child is to remain home 24 hours until both are true: fever-free without using fever reducing medications and symptoms are improving overall. Upon return and for the next 5 days, the CDC recommends enhancing hygiene practices and wearing a well-fitted mask.
Have a great spring break!
