Wednesday Weekly

.

In the event that you need to contact the school office for any reason, especially with a change in dismissal plans, you will want to send an email to both of the administrative assistants in the Front Office. Those emails should be sent to: Katherine West, who replaced Mrs. Harwood last school year, and also, Dani Kusmerz, who took the place of Ms. Rand. Their email addresses are:

kwest@barrington220.org, and dkusmerz@barrington220.org. You are also welcome to call the main office at 847-381-4148.

Families, as the significant road work on Route 14 continues, our transportation company is reminding everyone that pick up and drop off delays are to be expected, and may change from week to week. Make sure to download the My Ride K-12 app, which follows the bus in real time and can help prepare you for schedule adjustments on a given day.

Each fall, Barrington 220 shares important safety lessons with our students and community during our annual Safety Week. Families, starting this coming Sunday and running through next Thursday, expect a daily email previewing the next day's lesson.

You can review a number of safety resources anytime on our District 220 Safety webpage.

As we start the new year, please consider joining us for Barrington Children’s Charities P.O.P. program (Packs of Plenty), which provides eligible children with a bag full of nutritious food to eat over the weekend.
