D123 Summer School Registration is going on NOW!
The D123 Summer School program is accepting registrations beginning today! Brochures were sent home yesterday regarding the offerings this year. If you can't find it, please click on the link below that will take you to the web page that includes the brochure AND the registration link. Summer School is Monday through Thursday and begins the week of June 20. Summer School meets for 16 sessions. Classes fill up quickly, so as soon as you know what you want your student to sign up for, do it as soon as possible. Summer School will take place at Covington and Hometown School this summer.
Drop Off and Pick Up Reminders
K/1 Doors: Please do not block the driveway...especially at pick up. Please do not park in the driveway leading into the St Germaine parking lot. You must park in an actual spot.
2/3 Doors: Please be patient and wait in line when dropping off your students. Do not cut in front of another car so you can drop your child off.
4/5 Doors: Please do not pull up going Eastbound on 99th Street and walk your children across this very busy street. Pull up far enough if you want to watch your child until they get in the building. If you don't you will block everyone else trying to drop off their kids.
D123 Pre-School and Kindergarten Registration NOW OPEN!
Now is the time to register any children who will be old enough for preschool or Kindergarten!! Please click on the links below for more information as the requirements are different depending on the program you are interested in.
CoVid Updates
*Masking is now STRONGLY RECOMMENDED but not required for all students, staff and parents. If students take the bus for band or any other reason, they are still required to wear a mask.
*Positive cases will still need to quarantine for 5 days. After 5 days they may return but will need to be masked for an additional 5 days.
SHIELD Illinois
FYI.... We continue to test on Tuesdays when we have school. We get results anywhere from early the next morning until Thursday. We will always try to call you with a positive test as soon as we know. If we get results early in the morning, we will attempt to contact you before school begins.
The SHIELD Illinois program is a quick, simple, and non-invasive COVID-19 screening test. Students that have opted-in to the program will provide a small amount of saliva that is tested at a professional lab. Results of the test are then provided to families and our school district within the days following. The program offers students the opportunity to reduce or waive quarantine requirements in the event of close contact with a positive case or if the student demonstrates symptoms. You can opt-in to the program at any time by accessing Online Forms in Skyward Family Access. More information about the SHIELD Illinois program can be found at: d123.org/shield-illinois-testing-program
It now looks like depending on when you signed your child up, they may not be able to test until the following week.
