Things to Know:
MYSTERY READERS: Thank you to all who have volunteered! We were all booked up, however I thought it would be fun to wrap up the year with some additional mystery reader slots! If you haven't had a chance yet, there are now some slots for Mondays leading up to the end of the school year. Please visit this link if you are interested!
END OF THE YEAR PLAY:
SNACK SHOP: Thank you SO much for your generous donations! Our snack shop is off to a great start and has been a hit for the first graders! :-)
YOUR VOTE COUNTS! In December, the District 197 School Board voted unanimously to place a funding question before voters on May 8, 2018. The decision was based on 18 months of study by the district that included a Facilities Task Force, community input and expert assessments of building and mechanical maintenance needs.
There will be one ballot question on May 8, a request for the approval to issue $117 million in building bonds for additions, renovations and repairs at all schools, K-12. The bond proceeds will be used to:
- Conduct building and mechanical maintenance
- Modernize outdated classrooms and educational spaces
- Improve fine arts and athletics spaces
- Address handicapped accessibility and school parking lot safety
If voters approve the ballot question, the tax impact to a resident with a home value of $237,000 (median district home value) would be approximately $7 per month.
COMING UP: CAMP FIRST GRADE!
