PARENT PICK UP
Parents and students parking across Red Gate Road, along River Ridge Dr. for pick up this has become a considerable issue during the PM pick up. Even though signs are posted, "NO PARKING", this is completely ignored. Cars are parked on both sides of the street making it very difficult to drive up River Ridge. Often, cars pulled out and are insistent that a driver entering the neighborhood back-up.
Should there be an emergency within the neighborhood, just prior to dismissal, the emergency vehicles will not be able to navigate that entrance to our neighborhood.

KICK-A THON & CROSS TOWN CLASSIC
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.
