PIC Parent Update

Dear PIC Families,

Happy Friday!

We had a productive week at PIC, and today students celebrated Report Card Day with popcorn. Please note that report cards were sent home today. As a reminder, we will be on Spring Break next week. Upon our return, we have several events and activities planned, so please take note of the important dates listed below.

Additionally, we would like to remind you of two important items:

1. If you have not yet completed our 5 Essential survey, please do so at your earliest convenience. The link is below.
2. The payment for the Joliet Slammers field trip is due by April 7th.

Wishing everyone an enjoyable break!
