Hi there!

Christmas season is getting underway at Big Hearts of Fox Valley, and this year we anticipate helping 625 D303 children wake up on Christmas morning with gifts under the tree through our 13th Annual Christmas Sponsorship Program.

We’re looking for individuals, families, businesses, neighborhoods, teams, and community groups who would like to help make Christmas brighter for local children by shopping from their personal wish lists.

Become a Santa’s Helper

Sign up to shop for one or more local children, and next month we’ll send you their wish lists. We ask each shopper to purchase at least 5, but no more than 10, gifts per child and plan to spend a minimum of $75 per child.

We’d love to have you join us this Christmas season! Wish lists will be distributed next month, so sign up now! SANTA’S HELPERS SIGN UP HERE

Thank you for helping make Christmas brighter for D303 children right here in our community

With Big Hearts gratitude,

Please Join Us In Our New Recycling Challenge! It's easy! Just bring any of the plastic items shown below, to the container in the front entry. All plastic must be clean, dry, and free of food residue. The plastic is given to NexTrex who in turn, uses it to make new products. Please help us do something good for our environment while working toward earning something special for our school!

WHAT CAN WE WIN?

25 participating organizations are randomly selected each quarter and

rewarded with a gift, valued at $500

Each 250 pounds is an entry into the drawing.

There are now 3 options available to report your childs's attendance. Instead of calling in or emailing your student's absence, you may choose to record the attendance in ParentVUE! This may prove easier for many and you are able to report a late arrival or early pick up as well. You do not need to report the absence on the attendance line and in ParentVUE. Just choose one!

If you prefer, the option to phone or email is still available. Please call 331-228-3000 to report absences and choose option "1" or email Sharon Flanigan at sharon.flanigan@d303.org

• Messages can be left 24 hours a day.

• Please leave your name, your child's name, your phone number, reason for absence and your child's symptoms if ill.

• If you have alerted your student's teacher of the absence by email, please copy in sharon.flanigan@d303.org as well to avoid an attendance verification call.

Please refer to Chapter 2 of the 2026-2027 Student Handbook for detailed district attendance policies and procedures. Click the button below for the handbook!

We love to celebrate birthdays at Wild Rose. Your child’s birthday will be announced on our morning announcements or, Panther TV, when it is up and running. We have a Panther Paw Book VENDING MACHINE!!! Every student will receive a special token to choose a book for their birthday!

We do not allow food or other items to be brought in for birthday celebrations, so please do not send anything to school with your child.

Some of our classrooms have a tradition of inviting parents or other special guests on the day of the birthday to read a book. Classroom teachers will be sharing that information in their class newsletters.

We do allow a parent(s) or special adult in a student's life to come and have lunch with them. We do not allow other siblings to attend, and do limit visitors to a maximum of 2 adults. You are welcome to bring your student a special lunch. Please let the office know if you will be coming in to have a birthday lunch with your child.

If you would like to be considered for any of these supports, please complete Family Resource Form by September 11, 2026.

En D303, valoramos la oportunidad de proveer una comunidad de cuidado y apoyo a nuestras familias, especialmente a aquellas que enfrentan dificultades financieras.

Si su familia está experimentando actualmente una necesidad financiera significativa, nuestras asociaciones comunitarias tienen varios apoyos disponibles para las familias, incluyendo: ropa/calzado para la escuela, abrigos/accesorios de invierno, materiales escolares, artículos de aseo personal, comidas para los días festivos, y/o regalos para navidad. Si desea que se le tenga en cuenta para cualquiera de estas ayudas, por favor, rellene este formulario. Para ser considerado, es fundamental que complete esta encuesta a más tardar el viernes 11 de septiembre.

District 303 is proud to partner with the Glenbard Parent Series (GPS) to offer our families broader access to information sessions and resources that support their child’s development.

For decades, GPS has been offering free programs that aim to empower and strengthen families, individuals and communities. As a partner organization, District 303 will support promoting upcoming programs and their importance to our local community.
