Naperville 203 Holiday Card Winner
Congratulations to Chloe Xia, a third-grader at Meadow Glens, whose artwork will be used for an electronic card used by Naperville 203 administrators to send well wishes for a joyful 2023!
A big THANK YOU to all the students who submitted creative artwork.
COVID-19 Testing Ends Next Wednesday
Naperville 203 will end its weekly Wednesday COVID-19 testing at the District Administrative Center on Wednesday, Dec. 21 On Dec. 21, we will offer testing from 3-5 p.m.
Should you seek testing moving forward, please refer to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Community-Based Testing Sites by clicking below.
Calendar Update
Tuesday, February 28, 2023, will be a normal day of attendance for students. The date was previously listed on the calendar as a "Tentative e-Learning Day" in the event that an election would be held on that day. That election will not be taking place.
Tuesday, April 4, 2023, remains an e-Learning Day because that date is an Election Day.
Bus Driver Shortage
Naperville 203 continues to be impacted by the nationwide school bus driver shortage. A lack of drivers leads to routes running late, routes not being able to run at all, and the combining of routes. During this time, notice of changes to routes may be short. We apologize for this inconvenience.
We are looking to hire more School Bus Drivers! It’s a great job for those who have recently retired, parents with students who have recently gone to college, and those who have flexibility within their job to work a split shift. If interested, please click below to apply.
