If you have a phone conference scheduled, please be sure that you know the direct line to your child's classroom teacher to call in for the conference, OR that you have been in communication with your child's teacher about how to connect otherwise.
Thanks!

This would include: notice of new medications, illnesses, lice questions, state-mandated health requirements per grade, and any other health-related concerns.
Thank you so much in helping us focus our nursing efforts directly on our kids and their needs here in the building.

Word from WSFEE
The Western Springs Foundation for Educational Excellence (WSFEE) Board is excited to announce the approval of several grants so far this academic year; we will highlight one grant each week in the Principal Updates at each school. This week, learn more about:
WSFEE Chicago History Museum & Trolley Tour – This grant provides all 3rd grade students throughout the district the opportunity to visit the Chicago History Museum and take a trolley tour where the children see first-hand historic Chicago sites bringing to life what they have been learning in the classroom. The Field Park 3rd graders (pictures attached) enjoyed this field trip Nov. 13 with Laidlaw scheduled for Nov. 15 and Forest Hills on Dec. 3.
If you have a great idea to enhance the learning of our D101 students, but seek the funding, consider submitting a grant request. Please visit WSFEE’s website at www.wsfee.org.
