Illinois state code requires that kindergarten students submit a vision exam by October 15, 2024. If you haven't already, please submit a completed exam by October 15th. If you need any assistance or resources to get the exam done, please contact the nurse's office.

If a student needs to take any medication at school, including over-the-counter medications and cough drops, a Medication Authorization Form needs to be completed by the healthcare provider and parent. The medication is then stored in the health office.

If you drop students off for the before care program please only park in the main front lot or West Chicago lot and walk your students to the side door for aftercare. We ask that you do not pull into the side parking area(by the dumpsters) of the building area to drop off or pickup your students at any time. Thank you for your cooperation.
