Looking Ahead to Halloween
We are looking forward to celebrating Halloween at Eastview on Thursday, October 31st. Please see the below information regarding student costumes and the Halloween parade. Please refer to your teacher’s guidelines for any classroom-specific events.
Costumes:
Please use good judgment when selecting costumes for school.
Costumes depicting violence are not appropriate in a school setting.
Students should not bring masks that may obstruct their view while at school
Students should not bring makeup, or hair dye to school.
Weapons may not be a part of any costume (including swords, sticks, guns, etc.)
Parade:
Weather permitting, we will parade outside the school beginning at 9:00. Parents should stand on the blacktop or along the grass in front of the building. If it is raining, we will parade inside, and we will not be able to host parents.

Donations Needed for Trunk or Treat
Hey Eastview Families!
As we gear up for our exciting Trunk or Treat event, we’re reaching out to ask for your support in making this a fantastic night for the kids and our community.
We’re in need of donations for candy, raffle items, and gift cards. If you have any fun items or experiences you’d like to contribute for us to raffle off, we would greatly appreciate it! Also, we’re looking for themed gift baskets like a movie night, coffee lovers, game night enthusiasts, and even sports memorabilia to spice up our raffle. All money raised will go towards the teacher dinner that is held during parent-teacher conferences.
Every little bit helps make this event a success, so if you can donate anything, please let us know! You can drop off items at the school or reach out if you’d like us to pick them up. Eastviewelementarypto@gmail.com
Thanks for being such an awesome community, and we can’t wait to see everyone at Trunk or Treat!
Best,
Eastview PTO

EVERYDAY REMINDERS
How to Notify the Office When Your Student will be Absent
In the event your child will be absent, please email attendance.eastview@D300.org or call 847.532.7420 to report the absence. To ensure timely notification of your student's absence, it is important that you use this email address and/or phone number as the primary way to report absences. This will help eliminate any missed information in the event a teacher or staff member is out of the building. If your student will be absent for more than two days, please complete a Pre-Arranged Absence Form, and drop it off or email it to the office. Students that are missing school for a doctor or dentist appointment, or for therapy, should provide a note from the doctor/therapist when they return to school.
Virtual Backpack
The virtual backpack contains information regarding events that are happening in the district and around the area. Follow this link to access the information: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WPA1rLcILO2McDX3_oDnt8AtJSnqBrfv
Birthday Book Club
Help celebrate your student's birthday by making a donation to the Eastview library. When a donation is made, students will get to select a book that will be added to our library. The book will have a special book plate put in signifying that this book was donated by your student. They will also have their picture taken with the book and will be the first allowed to check this book out.
