• For decades, GPS has been offering free programs that aim to empower and strengthen families, individuals and communities. As a partner organization, District 303 will support promoting upcoming programs and their importance to our local community.

  
  

Do you have students who attend before or aftercare with West Chicago Park District? If so, park in either the main front school parking lot or the side park district lot and walk your students to the side door to drop them off. For the safety of everyone do not park in the side school lot as that is not a student drop off lot. This lot is for deliveries, vendors and staff only. Thanks you for your cooperation.

As the weather is changing please ensure your student comes to school with a coat, gloves, and a hat. Once we have snow on the ground they will need snow boots for recess in order to be in the snow. The weather gets quite chilly in the back of the building. Student will go outside as long as the temperature is above zero degrees.

You can email your child's teacher directly from HAC. After logging in, click on the "classes" image on the top menu. You will be able to view your child's schedule. Each of your child's teachers are listed under "teacher." If you right click on a name, you are given a "copy email address" option.

If you are arriving later than 9:05 please walk your student in to the office to sign them in for the day. Please also call the office if you plan on arriving after 9:05am. The attendance line number is 331-228-2700.
