The Board of Education meets regularly on the second Wednesday of each month. Meetings are held at the Itasca Village Hall, 550 W. Irving Park Road, Itasca, Illinois, at 7:00 P.M. If a closed session is needed, it is held prior to the regular meeting at 6:00 P.M.

Earlier this week, the Board of Education officially accepted the recent election results and selected new leadership. We extend our congratulations to James Barthel, our new Board President, Tina O’Neill, who will continue as Vice President, and Casey Amayun, who will remain as Board Secretary.

We would like to recognize the achievements of our out-going board president, Marty Lundeen. Marty dutifully served on the Board of Education for many years. The capital project to modernize our schools could not have been as successful as it has been without his drive and dedication. He has left an impact and set a high standard for both the district and the board going forward.

Thank you, President Lundeen, for your unwavering commitment to Itasca 10, our students, teachers, and families.
