Corron Mission Statement
From the Principal
Thank you to all of the parents that were able to join us for Curriculum Night. We received a lot of positive feedback about the change in format. Parents seemed happy to hear about the grade level curriculum, see the classrooms, and spend time with their child’s teacher. It was also a special treat for our support staff members to get to spend time with the students who joined us for child care. They played games, did puzzles and colored with students. I think the teachers had more fun than the kids did!
Our Curriculum Night is just one way that we partner with our families. In October, we will be hosting Student Conferences focused on goal setting. These conferences are a great way to build the home-school connection, with students having a voice in the conversation as well. Be on the lookout for more information about how to sign up for conferences sometime in the next few weeks.

School Drop-offs
We encourage parents to help their children remember ALL of their belongings before coming to school. We do not interrupt instruction for drop-offs so we require you to email their teacher, as well as label their belongings when you bring them to the school.

KICK-A-THON
Join us at the 2024 Kick-A-Thon!
KICK-A-THON is a local event that began over 30 years ago as an effort from the St. Charles High School Dance Team to raise money to help kick cancer. It has grown to include East and North High School Dance Teams and other amazing charities. This charity event will benefit the Fox Valley Food for Health, Colette A. Miles Foundation, and the high school dance teams. To date, we have raised over a million dollars and need your help to keep that number growing. Please join the St. Charles High School Dance Teams as we raise money to kick cancer.
This year’s event will take place on Friday, October 4th, 2024, at St. Charles North High School, prior to the start of the varsity football game between St. Charles North and St. Charles East. Local community members who help with fundraising will form a kick line alongside the dance team members and kick 100 times in an effort to raise money for these charities.
