First Student Bus Co. 630-279-2720
Often, our buses run late. First Student will notify us when there is a delay in the time for buses so we can notify our parents of the bus that is running late. Sometimes, a situation arises in which our office is closed, and a parent tries to call us. If this is the case, you may contact First Student at 630-270-2720. Note that our School Office hours are from 7:15 to 3:15, Monday through Friday, for Salt Creek and Stella May Swartz.
Update Information
It is important that parents keep their information updated in Skyward. If there is an emergency we do not want to have the wrong information. Please contact the proper school your student attends and give them any new information that needs to be changed whether it be for yourself, your spouse, another parent from a different address (we can separate addresses when student's are split between households),update new or old emergency contacts and any phone numbers for anyone on your Skyward parent portal. It is your responsibility to keep us informed. Salt Creek 630-832-6122, Stella May Swartz 630-834-9256 and Albright 630-279-6160.
Call the ABSENTEE LINE when your child is absent ☎️
Please make sure to call the Stella May Swartz Absentee line at 630-834-9256, press 2 if your child will be absent or arriving late. The school office will retrieve these messages every morning. If you have any doctor's notes, please send those with your student for the nurse's office.
*** You must leave a detailed reason of the absence.
A valid cause for absence includes illness (including mental or behavioral health of the student), observance of a religious holiday, death in the immediate family, family emergency, other situations beyond the control of the student. Remember if you do not call your student in on the day they are absent with a reason, they will be considered an Unexcused absence.
