Last Day of School

As we prepare for the upcoming school year it is important that you register your children as soon as possible. This is separate from fees which will be added to Pushcoin on July 1st.

If you are moving within or out of the district please give the office a call at 331-228-6900 or email diane.eageny@d303.org

Hello Corron families! It's that exciting time of the year again! Field Day is fast approaching! We are looking for volunteers to help run games and supervise activities. If you are interested in volunteering please contact: john.michalisko@d303.org

Here are some further details: The morning session will be from 9:30-11:45 and help will be needed for Kdg, 1st, and 2nd grades at that time. The afternoon session will be from 12:20-2:45 and help will be needed for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades at that time. Feel free to sign up for the morning, afternoon, or both sessions if you would like! Mr. Michalisko is going to cap the number of volunteers to 12 in each session. Thank you for your consideration!

We are quickly approaching Teacher Appreciation Week! That week where we can show the whole staff just how much we value them and all they do for our kiddos. PTO is planning to provide a variety snacks, lunch, and we have a few other tricks up our sleeve!

We are hoping you will help support one day of the fun by donating gift cards in the $5-$10 range so that we can provide each of our 80 staff members with a little something. These can be sent to school in an envelope labeled TAW attn. Danielle Sundvall or reach out via email at dmmsundvall@gmail.com to arrange drop off/pick-up. We would love to have these by the end of April.

If you prefer to make a monetary donation that can be done via this link.

We thank you in advance for showing your appreciation.

Cold and Flu season is upon us once again. Preventative measures remain the most effective way to reduce the spread of influenza and other viral illnesses. Please review healthy hygiene habits with your student, such as hand washing and keeping hands away from their nose/mouth while at school.

Absences from School

Report all absences to the attendance line. Please provide reason for absences and whether or not your child has a communicable or contagious illness.

Keep a child home from school when:

• Your child has had a fever of 100 degrees F or more within the past 24 hours

• Your child has had vomiting or diarrhea within the past 24 hours

• Your child has an unexplained rash, sore or pink eyes with a discharge

• Your child has a persistent, productive cough

** Your child must be fever free for 24 hours before returning to school without medication

** If a bacterial infection has been diagnosed, your child must have 24 hours of antibiotics before returning to school

** If your child has not fully recovered or remained home for the recommended length of time, parents may be contacted and asked to take the child home.

Extended Absences: Extended absences of 5 or more days may require that the student present a doctor's statement of re-admittance to the school nurse. For further information on childhood illnesses and diseases please go to Health Information on the D303 website, or contact your school nurse directly at: cor-nurses@d303.org

We want your feedback on the condition of your schools and learning facilities. In mid-May, we will be sending all of D303 a postcard that includes a Facilities Survey. Please keep an eye out for it and share your feedback!

The District 303 Parent/Guardian Attendance Resource Guide is officially launching on the D303 website. This comprehensive resource is organized into three sections: D303-specific attendance resources, community-based attendance resources, and general attendance information, providing families with a clear, accessible starting point for navigating attendance concerns.

The latest episode of the Voices of D303 podcast includes visits to Wild Rose Elementary School and North High School, to give the community a firsthand look at facilities challenges faced every day by D303 students, staff, and families. Check out this clip with North High School Athletic Director Joe Benoit.

At the April 27 meeting of the School Board’s Business Services Committee, D303 Leadership gave a presentation that includes a timeline of Board discussions about the D303 Communitywide Education Facilities Committee’s Final Report, which includes support for 16 facilities investments totaling an estimated $295.6 million. The presentation also includes an overview of D303’s budgeting process and strong fiscal stewardship.
