• Kindergarten Center Fundraiser
• School Supplies
• Health Office Information

Location: Hadley Jr. High School, 240 Hawthorne Blvd, Glen Ellyn

This district-wide event is for parents only and will provide an opportunity to meet school leaders and other incoming families. We’ll share valuable information about the upcoming school year and give you a chance to ask questions. Please note, this orientation replaces the previously held Kindergarten Round-Up or Open House. It’s a wonderful chance to get familiar with what’s ahead as your child starts their kindergarten journey.

If you cannot attend, no worries! I will send the presentation out via email the following day to all Kindergarten Center families.

Please consider dining out at Portillo's on the 28th as a fundraiser for the

D41 Kindergarten Center!

Supply kits are on sale now, please use the QR code or click the link above to order for the 2025-26 school year!

Orders placed by June 28th will be delivered to the Kindergarten Center in August.

Families are always welcome to purchase and bring their own supplies (link to list here), but School Tool Box is a great resource for those who would like the shopping done for them!
