As families prepare for the start of a new school year, Illinois is offering an opportunity to save on essential school supplies, including clothing and footwear. During the Illinois Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday, Aug. 7-16, the sales tax will be reduced on qualifying school-related items.

Save the date! Join us for Ice Cream Social 2026 on Aug. 28! Don't miss our annual back-to-school celebration, hosted by PALS.

Complete registration for the 2026-2027 school year by Aug. 1 to avoid a $25 late fee per student. Families who are re-registering have received an email with a snapcode and a link to the re-registration portal. Families who are registering for the first time should visit the District website to begin the registration process.

Registration is not complete until the online registration form is submitted for each student, residency documents are submitted, and school fees are paid.

Please note: Students will not receive classroom teacher assignments or be assigned to school buses until fully registered. Additionally, students who are not fully registered by Tuesday, Aug. 25, at 3:30 p.m. will not be able to enter their classrooms on their first day of school, and families will need to visit the Administration Building to complete registration.

For future planning, please review the 2026-2027 school year calendar.

Keep an eye out for one remaining Tuesday Newsday summer edition, which will be sent on August 18.
