Principal's Update
Parent Teacher Conferences are this coming Monday and Tuesday. Please check your schedule on Meet the Teacher and take a look at room locations (posted below) for conferences. Some teachers will not be in the room assigned through Meet the Teacher since they move throughout the school day. We are looking forward to meeting with you to discuss your child's progress! There are still a few spots open for the Stock the Lounge Signup if you're interested in donating items to the Teacher's Lounge for conferences.
It's the giving season and we have several ways to support students in D92! Please consider participating in The Giving Tree event hosted at each of the D92 schools. The tree is up right outside of the front office so please grab a tag if you would like to support a d92 family in need!
The Holiday Craft Market will also be open during conferences to support the PEC program. See the flyer below for more details on the sale!
The Book Fair will also be open during conferences. Please see the flyer below for more details, or stop in the LMC.
Please take a look at the Lost and Found table to claim any items by the end of the day of Nov 26th. All items will be donated to a local charity if not claimed.

Book Fair
The Scholastic Book Fair is at Oak Prairie Junior High School! This is a great opportunity to connect with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again and again. Studies show that kids read more when they choose books for themselves. And fostering a love of independent reading leads to a wide variety of benefits—including academic success and improved mental health. Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:
