Are you interested in exploring the world, meeting new people, and learning about another culture? The Antioch Rotary Club, a longtime supporter of our students, is offering an amazing three-week student exchange program this summer. Many CHSD117 students have participated in this program in the past, and it is a tremendous opportunity! There is a cost to families, but it is an incredible opportunity to travel abroad, build leadership skills, and make lifelong friendships. For more information, please join us for the Information Night on Thursday, November 19 at 7:00 pm in the Antioch Community High School Cafeteria. Please park and enter through the Auditorium Entrance. If you are unable to attend the meeting on the 19th, you can still apply via the application all students received in their email. If you are unable to attend and have questions about this opportunity, please contact Dr. Feucht at jeff.feucht@chsd117.org .

Tuesday, November 17th, 6:30 pm is the Class of 2028 College Kickoff presentation in the LCHS Cafeteria. Juniors and their parents/guardians/caregivers should plan to join us to begin the “boots on the ground” portion of their college search.

If you have someone that has represented RESPECT + COURTESY = PRIDE, gone above and beyond for their students, or made a difference in your child's day, NOMINATE them for November's Staff Member of the Month!

Nominations are due by November 15th!

With more students choosing electric bikes and scooters to get to school, campus pathways and parking areas are busier than ever. To keep morning drop-offs smooth and everyone safe on foot, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

• Gear up before you roll: Always wear a properly fitted helmet. Even at low speeds, a spill on concrete can cause serious injury.

• Observe pedestrian zones: Foot traffic always has the right of way. Dismount and walk your wheels once you enter crowded courtyards, crosswalks, bus loading areas, and building entrances.

• Watch your speed: Keep your speed under 10 mph near school property and match the flow of surrounding pedestrian traffic.

• Park with consideration: Lock bikes and scooters upright to designated campus bike racks. Keep wheelchair ramps, stairways, doorways, and fire exits completely clear.

• Stay alert and unplugged: Keep at least one ear free from headphones or earbuds while riding so you can hear horns, approaching vehicles, and crossing guards.

• Ride solo: Most personal e-scooters and e-bikes are built for one person. Doubling up makes steering unstable and stops much harder.

Thank you for doing your part to protect our school community and keep campus paths safe for everyone!

The blue button below links to the Illinois Secretary of State website that provides information regarding the upcoming changes to e-bikes. Please let me know if you have any follow up questions.or concerns.

Is your student looking for volunteer hours? National Honor Society frequently receives requests for student volunteers that are also open to any Lakes student who is looking for hours.

As our fall season winds down we want to congratulate our Girls Volleyball team - while they came up against a strong Sycamore team in the first round of sectional play, that doesn't take away from an all-around stellar season. Great job players and coaches! And a special shout out to Addison Sundquist on being the NLCC 2-Time Player of the Year! What a great accomplishment - a well deserved recognition for an outstanding athlete!

Our Girls Country team was represented at State in Peoria this past weekend by Hannah Salbilla and Madison Schrader --congratulations on a successful season! And Cooper Summy capped off his senior season with a 20th place finish, running a personal best time of 14:41.5. Way to go Cooper!

We believe quality instruction must always be based on accurate data in order to systematically meet all students at their respective levels of development and encourage consistent growth. Testing is an integral aspect of this process. Our goal at CHSD117 is to strike an ideal balance between accurate assessment and quality instruction. Here is the D117 Assessment Calendar.
