Recognizing Artists
Although there are certain months when artists are recognized nationally, District 103 would like to recognize its artists for the incredible job they do daily and for being selected to represent their school.
District 103 students have artwork displayed at the Lincolnshire Village Hall through mid-May. Take a walk through the village entrance hall to view artwork from each grade level. The following Sprague students have artwork on display: Siddhi Kond (K), Rio Negishi (K), Avani Yellapantula (1), Nathan Thorn (1), Ellen Ouyang (2), and Mia Sun (2).
On Tuesday, May 17, about 15 percent of students will have their artwork on display at the Stevenson Consortium Art Show. Families will be notified if their child is selected to participate in this event. Visit the show from 5 to 8 p.m. in the Field House at SHS.
The Celebrating Art contest deadline closes Thursday, April 7.
Please visit the school's Facebook page or view the Google Doc folder for pictures.

Parent Input Form
At Sprague, we believe that home-school collaboration creates the best possible placement for students.
The creation of classes is an important process for our students where staff collectively looks at the needs of individuals, groups, the balance of academics, and social-emotional needs, to create healthy learning groups and environments.
If you wish to share information on your child, this Google Doc Form provides you with the opportunity to do so. The input you provide will be reviewed and considered as we begin planning for your child's upcoming school year. While specific teacher requests cannot be accommodated, your insight is valued. We look forward to providing your child with continued learning excellence. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with your child's team.
Please note, the input you share is not private between the Principal and parent and will be shared with our team during the placement process. Please do not request specific teachers. Any response form that lists a specific teacher will not be included in the placement process. Please complete a form for each of your children, if desired. This form needs to be completed by April 22, 2022.
