Online enrollment...COMING SOON
Our district is currently transitioning from the GoEdustar Student Information to the Skyward Student Information System. We are in the final stages of setting this up. Online Enrollment information will be coming soon. Watch for information next week on School Rush, SCES Facebook page and the USD466 website. Thank you for your patience as we move to our new system.
Welcome Back
Ready, Set, Go!
Welcome students and families to a new school year! This year promises to be filled with new opportunities for learning, growth, and exploration. Our dedicated team of educators is committed to creating a supportive and engaging environment where every student can thrive. The theme for the first day of school pep rally is Ready, Set, Go! Let's make this year a memorable and successful one, filled with achievements, discoveries, and joyful experiences!
If you have a t-shirt with a race car theme, students can wear those, but don't purchase a shirt just for this.

This year we are going to pictures taken on Aug. 19. Pictures will be set up in the gym from 8:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m.
Parents will be able to hand the photographer the envelope with their check and not worry that it will be lost between home and school. Photo envelops will be provided that day.
The pictures are digital so parents will be able to see the picture in real time reducing the need for retakes later.
Parents can bring students ready and hopefully will not have to worry about hair getting messed up or clothes out of place.
All students should have their picture taken even if you do not plan to purchase them. These pictures will be used for the yearbook.

Back to School Reminders
Seesaw
Be sure you have set up Seesaw with your child's teacher.
Drop off and pick up
A few friendly reminders as you drop off and pick up students:
Please be sure to refrain from using your cell phones. It helps us to have everyone paying attention.
Please do not leave your car unattended.
If your child needs assistance getting in and out of the car or putting on their seatbelt, please pull into a parking stall. This will help us keep the car line moving more efficiently.
The doors open at 7:40 a.m. Staff members will not be supervising prior to that time.
The dismissal bell rings at 3:35. Please be here to pick up your child at that time. We typically have students all picked up by 3:45. Many of our staff members work in our SCORE program or coach after school and need to get to their next duty.
SCORE
Parents Right to Know
It is a requirement that the district let parents know their rights due to the ESES law for all Title I schools. This notification lets you, as parents know that you may request information regarding the professional qualifications of the student’s classroom teachers, including at a minimum the following:
Whether the teacher has met State Qualifications and licensing criteria for the grade levels and subject areas in which the teacher provides instruction;
Whether the teachers are teaching under emergency or other provisional status through which State qualification or licensing have been waived;
The baccalaureate degree major of the teachers and any other graduate certification or degree held by the teachers and the field of discipline of the certification or degree; and
Whether the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.
