Thank a Staff Member
Take a few moments this long weekend to "Thank a Staff Member": just click the staff member's name and spend 30 seconds writing a brief positive message or thank-you. You can choose to leave your name or to remain anonymous, and your message will be private between you, the staff member, and me.
We love to hear about:
* a story your child told you at home about an interaction with a teacher
* a sweet moment you saw happen at school
* a remembrance from years past
* a funny anecdote
* anything else that might bring joy!
Thanks!
10/14 - 10/18: Hillgrove Avenue Closed (between Johnson/Franklin)
From the Village of Western Springs:
Hillgrove Avenue, from Johnson Avenue to Franklin Avenue, will be closed to traffic and unavailable for parking, from Monday October 14 through Friday, October 18. This closure is due to the installation of a new water main across Hillgrove Avenue. Johnson Avenue, Franklin Avenue, and Howard Avenue will remain open to north and southbound traffic.
REPEATED: Field Park's OCTOBER Monthly Book Focus
For October, every class will read the book After the Fall: How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again by Dan Santat and discuss this story's theme of perseverance through it all.
Read it at home - you won't be disappointed!
