Corron Mission Statement
Corron is a safe, warm and inviting community where all are valued and empowered. We celebrate growth. Clear evidence highlights the impact we have academically, socially and emotionally.
From the Principal
Thank you to all of the families that joined us for our Open House on Monday night. It was so fun to see the students taking charge as they led their parents around the building with their passports! The positive energy of the evening was heartwarming. Feedback from students, parents and teachers was that it was a successful event, and that we need to continue doing it moving forward. What a great way to kick off our first all school event of the year!

We love to celebrate birthdays at Corron. Your child’s birthday will be announced on our morning announcements on the day of their birthday or before the weekend/summer. We do not allow in food for birthday celebrations so please do not send them to school or drop them off. If you would like to send in non-edible treats (such as a pencil or other non food item) that is fine.

This is the 28th annual Kick a Thon. We have raised over 1 million dollars to date. We are so excited this year to raise money for Fox Valley Food for Health, The Colette A Miles Foundation and The Justin Hardy Foundation.
This year the proceeds will benefit three charities:
Collette's Crew - The Colette A. Miles Foundation also known as Colette’s Crew offers individual support, volunteer programs, annual events, and corporate sponsorship’s to benefit and impact the lives of cancer patients and families. Our mission is to inspire and provide many avenues for individuals and businesses in the community to get involved and make an impact on others’ lives. Through The Colette A. Miles Foundation programs, events and financial support channels, patients and their families receive the comfort, support and courage to fight the battle.
You are Stronger #HardyStrong - Justin Hardy is a 2018 grad of St. Charles East High School and a early graduate of Wash U in St. Louis. Justin was a major force behind more than 70 wins while he was at St. Charles East. He was a starter for nationally ranked Wash U. In April of 2021 Justin was diagnosed with Stage 4 Stomach Cancer. Justin decided to attack this diagnosis like he would attack a defender on the court. The scholarship fund is for future student athletes who display the grit, determination and will that Justin has clearly demonstrated through these difficult times.
Fox Valley Food for Health - Fox Valley Food for Health promotes a nutrition focused community by educating teens and serving those struggling with a health crisis. They strive to keep the community educated, empowered, connected and nourished by providing an environment that is physically, socially, vocationally, intellectually and emotionally nurturing and empowering through nutritious food.
