Dear Families,
I’ve gotten some great feedback from parents, and--in this week’s Friday Facts, you’ll see some of the changes! Suggestions have been
- Put the Friday in a blog so we can go back and see old messages--Done! Now this is a blog and you get the link in your email. This way you can see new information as well as “old” info.
- Put the Superintendent’s Message and the Friday together so we have one thing to read--Done! I’ll put them together in a weekly blog post!
- Add some pictures--Done! I’m going to put in a “Picture(s) of the Week” each week for you to enjoy!
Keep the suggestions coming! I appreciate your input!

The Ronald McDonald Clinic is coming to back to D114. They will be at Lotus on Friday April 6th and Stanton on Monday April 9th. These clinics are free of charge to those who have Medicaid or no insurance. If your student is entering kindergarten or 6th grade or is trying out for a sport next school year, this is the perfect opportunity to fulfill those physical and immunization requirements. If you are interested in taking advantage of this great program, please visit our website www.d114.org or contact Mrs. Lanners, our district nurse, to obtain the necessary paperwork. Paperwork must be turned in no later than April 2nd and is required for your student to be seen.
We're celebrating a great partnership! Come to see a performance of Beauty and the Beast, presented by Grass Lake School District students hosted at Lotus on Friday, March 16 or Saturday, March 17 at 7PM. Tickets can be purchased at the door.
