New for 2022-23: Student Absence Reporting through ParentVUE
School District 47 has a brand new reporting procedure when your child is going to be absent from school! All absences are to be done through ParentVUE!
If your child will be absent from school, parents/guardians will need to log into ParentVue to report the absence before the start of the school day -- by 8:50 a.m. When reporting an absence, please login to ParentVUE and click on Attendance on the left side of the screen. Then, click on the blue Report Absence tab on the top right corner.
You can enter future absences as well, if you know your child is going to be absent from school on a future date.
Early Release Day
Wednesday, October 19 is an early release day. Students are dismissed at 2:00pm.
