Help Us Decorate Our Diversity Display Boards
Half Day School would like to welcome families to help highlight the diverse cultures that represent District 103!
We are looking for families to spotlight their culture, country, and/or traditions in the front hallway display cases during a month of this school year. The vibrant displays are a hit among the students and truly celebrate the rich tapestry of cultures that make our school community so special. If you are interested, please sign up on the following Diversity Display Boards sheet.
For any additional questions, please email Esther Lee at elee@d103.org and/or Christine Namkung at cnamkung@d103.org. Thank you for your continued support and involvement in making Half Day School a place where all our students feel significant!
District 103 will launch an updated website this month. The updated website was necessitated by the acquisition of our previous website provider by Finalsite.
