D114 Friday Facts--March 23, 2018

D114 Friday Facts--March 23, 2018

Dear Families,

While there are PLENTY of reasons to be proud to be D114, three amazing events happened on Tuesday!

To start the morning, our fabulous, undefeated, conference champion 7th grade girls' basketball team got an amazing escort to school...

Then, we celebrated at Lotus for first grade teacher Erica Barraza's Golden Apple award...

Then, we closed the school day with a fabulous academic award celebration at Stanton...

WHAT A DAY TO BE D114! But what’s wonderful is that amazing things happen EVERY day in our school district!

A few updates for you as we head into Spring Break:

2018-19 Calendar--Click here to view

At Tuesday’s Board of Education meeting, the calendar for next school year was approved. While there were two options, the Board approved the calendar that most closely mirrors Grant High School’s calendar in hopes that this will help families who have children in both systems. We will add more specific events to the calendar in April, but if you’d like to see the general structure and key dates/holidays, please click here to view the posted calendar.

Culver’s Event

If you don’t feel like cooking on Tuesday, April 3, please join us at the new Fox Lake Culver’s! For all meals, Culver’s will donate 15% back to District 114! Click here for details. Thanks to our PTA for setting this up!

Spirit Wear

Looking for some Lotus or Stanton spirit wear? Thanks to our PTA, there is a quick and easy way to order. Please click here to see your options, and note that the deadline for ordering is Friday, April 5.

As you look to April, please remember that Friday, April 13 is a non-attendance day for students.
