Parent University: Becoming a Middle School Parent
Parents and guardians of fifth grade students are invited to attend “Parent University: Becoming a Middle School Parent” at 7 pm on Thursday, April 21. The session will be held in the Forum Room at Fischer Middle School located at 1305 Long Grove Drive in Aurora.
Attendees will learn what to expect as their child enters the adolescent years, including brain development, puberty, normal adolescent behavior, challenges, and causes for concern. Most importantly, there will be a discussion on ways parents and guardians can support their child’s development throughout these years.
Current fifth grade students are welcome to attend this event with a parent or guardian. Students will participate in a variety of fun community building activities and games led by District 204 high school students.

Residency Verification Process
The district is again contracting with a third party vendor to automatically verify student address information. As was the case last year, we anticipate the overwhelming majority of our families will be electronically verified.
If your residency is electronically verified, you will receive a letter of confirmation and there will be no need to submit any additional paperwork to certify that you live within the district’s boundaries.
A letter will also be sent to families whose residency we are unable to verify electronically. The letter will provide details on additional information you will need to provide during online registration in order to register your child for the upcoming school year.
Verifying residency is an effort to protect taxpayers and district resources by identifying non-residents attending District 204 schools. Illinois law mandates that parents demonstrate residency prior to enrollment in school and allows for periodic verification to validate compliance with the law.
