District 118 Parents, Families, and Community Members,


As we conclude the fall semester, we extend our sincere appreciation to our families, educators, and staff for their dedication and partnership in supporting Wauconda Community Unit School District 118. Your commitment to the growth, learning, and well-being of every student is what makes our district strong, and we are grateful to be on this journey together.


As winter break begins, we hope these weeks provide students, staff, and families with time to rest, reconnect, and enjoy the holidays together. This pause offers an opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments of the past months and to recharge as we look ahead to a new year filled with promise and possibility for our entire D118 community.


Whether you are traveling or staying close to home, we wish you and your family a safe, joyful holiday season and a happy and healthy 2026.


Warm regards,

Vincent Torossy

Board of Education President on behalf of the Board
