Weekly News from Kimball Hill
WEEK of March 8th, 2021
A Message from the Principal
Dear Kimball Hill Parents & Guardians,
Our students had another successful week and did an amazing job demonstrating safe behavior at all of our safety drills. Today was our virtual Pie the Principals event. Students were so excited and we are so proud of all their hard work collecting items for our food drive! Pictures are attached!
Our current response rate is 18% and just a reminder we need at least 20% to receive a report. Your voice matters and I am always looking for feedback!
Please visit https://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/ to take the parent survey.
As always, please reach out to me any time with questions or concerns at lacamerm@ccsd15.net or call the school at 847-963-5200.
Warmly,
Michelle LaCamera
