Township High School District 211 and Fremd High School continue to recognize the importance of addressing social-emotional needs, self-care, and being healthy and active. The fair will be held in the main gym during all lunch periods on Friday, March 22nd. The goal of the fair is to provide Fremd students with the opportunity to learn more about traditional and creative ways to support their own mental, physical, and emotional health and find different activities for practicing self-care. The following are organizations that will be participating in the Self-Care fair:

• Ascension Behavioral Hospital
• Arbor Counseling Center
• The Bridge Youth and Family Services
• Lutheran Charities K-9 Dogs
• Northwest CASA
• Palatine Police Department
• Kenneth Young Center
• Wings Program
• Compass Health Center
• Palatine Park District
• Northwest Community Hospital
• F.A.I.R. Counseling

We are looking forward to seeing families and staff this Friday at the Green and Gold Booster Fundraiser! If you are not able to attend the event, you are still welcome to participate in the online auction. Please visit https://e.givesmart.com/events/zh4/ to bid on items or donate!

Please take a moment to share your feedback about your experience with William Fremd High School! We use your feedback to make plans for the upcoming school year, and your voice is very important!

5 Essentials Parent Survey

All students will be required to take final examinations. Seniors may qualify for an exemption from their last semester final examinations in all courses if the student:

• has at least a “C” average in the course
• has fewer than six absences from the class
• has never been truant from the class
• has never been suspended from the class
• and is not incomplete on assignments required by the teacher.

Seniors who are not exempt from last semester final examinations will take their examinations at the regularly scheduled times for semester examinations.

Did you know that you can pre-order your lunch using MySchoolBucks? Order ahead (by the night before) and skip the lunch line to pick up your lunch order in the "Mobile Order" area of the cafeteria. This is a great option for students with period-and-a-half classes. During this pilot phase, only 25 mobile orders per lunch hour will be allowed, so get your order in early!

Remember to take a moment to log your community service hours in Maia Learning! See the attachment below for details on how to put them into your account.

Each year, District 211 schools partner with the Illinois Department of Human Services and the Center for Prevention Research and Development at the University of Illinois to conduct the Illinois Youth Survey. The survey is administered in schools across Illinois, and is designed to gather information about a variety of health and social indicators including substance abuse and perceptions, bullying, school climate, nutrition and physical activity. Survey results are provided to schools and evaluated to develop strategies and programs to improve support options available to students.

Student survey responses are confidential and no personally identifiable information is collected during the survey process. Parents and guardians have the option to request that their student not participate in this survey. This may have already been done, as information about this survey and the ability to opt-out was included in the registration process parents completed at the beginning of the school year. If parents would like to request that sophomore or senior student not participate in the survey, and they have not already done so, please complete and turn in the paper form to Student Services that can be found using this link.

More information about the Illinois Youth Survey, including a parent notification letter from the Center for Prevention Research and Development at the University of Illinois and the questions that are included in the survey, are available using the links below.

• Parent Notification Letter (Espanol) from the Center for Prevention Research and Development
