The time has come to celebrate our incredible 8th-grade students as they prepare to move on to high school! We are excited to announce that our 8th-grade recognition ceremony will take place on Wednesday, May 28, at 7:00 PM at Barrington High School. There are no tickets to this event. All are welcome! Seating is first come first serve. The doors open at 6:30 PM. Families are encouraged to attend this special evening as we recognize the hard work and achievements of our graduating students.

To ensure a smooth and memorable event, students should arrive at BHS by 6:30 PM, dressed nicely for the occasion. This is a momentous milestone, and we look forward to celebrating each student’s journey and accomplishments together.

Happy graduation to Station 8th graders!

Barrington 220 values student attendance. For a student to have a successful experience, the student must be present in class. Any absence from school is a missed learning opportunity for your child. Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school—and themselves.

We know that students are absent from school for a number of reasons, from health concerns to transportation challenges. Many people in our schools are prepared to help you if you or your student face challenges in getting to school regularly or on time. Depending on your student’s grade or school, this may include your principal, assistant principal, counselor, teacher, or all of the above. We are always available to assist and support your child in fulfilling our mission of empowering personal excellence in every learner. For more information please click here.

If you plan to pick up your child up early from school, we ask that you please put in an Absence Request in the Parent Portal on Infinite Campus. When you arrive to pick up your child, please come to the front door with your cell phone. Ms. Jarva or Ms. Alters will buzz you in and you will scan a QR code (located on table near front door) that is linked to a sign-out form that you complete while you wait for your child to come down from class. Please note, only individuals listed on Infinite Campus (IC) will be allowed to pick up your child. If you need assistance with the parent portal, please contact the Infinite Campus Hotline at (847)-842 3580.

Thank you!

In our district’s continued effort to keep our students and staff safe, remember to bring your driver’s license or state ID when you come to visit/volunteer at Station. The reason for this is we run your ID through our sex offender background check system. After your ID is scanned, you will be issued a visitor lanyard and visitor sticker before being admitted into the building. Every D220 school follows these procedures. For the safety of our students, there are no exceptions.
