Illinois City Elementary Parents/Guardians. Today was day one of 25-26 school year....a lot of learning, especially for our kindergarten students. Our staff, too, is learning with a new master schedule, staffing changes, a new math curriculum, and other parts to a new school year.. Basically we are all learning and working to settle in to a new school year. If something was confusing to you today, and you need to ask a question (or two or ten!), please drop me an email, and I'll work to get an answer to you. And if you hear great things from your student about the first day, throw those things at me too - jbizarri@rr300.org - I'd appreciate forwarding those to our staff. Tomorrow and Monday are 1:30 dismissal schedules, and those can throw timing off - especially when we haven't even yet settled into timing on a "regular day". Please be patient as we continue to all learn together!

A big thank you for Greg, Keaton, and Austin for the work on the ICE playground this afternoon in hot weather. A LOT of mulch had washed away during the recent heavy rains we have experienced just after new mulch had arrived and been spread last week. This was not a fun job on a hot August afternoon. Thanks for this work and all the work that FBG and our maintenance crew do for our building!
