SCARECROW FEST

Join us downtown this weekend for Scarecrow Fest! We invite you to stop by the D303 booth, located across from the stage in Lincoln Park.

At our booth, you can participate in a CommUnity activity, test your D303 knowledge with a pop quiz for adults, and earn fun prizes for everyone including our limited-edition D303 sunglasses (because we have bright futures in D303)!

While you're at the fest, be sure to visit our district scarecrow, Sammy! Sammy is entered in the Mega Category and can be found in Lincoln Park off of 4th Street. A special thank you to D303 staff Steve Morrill and Patricia Ackerman, as well as the Facilities and Communications Teams for their time and collaboration which helped bring the scarecrow vision to life.

Scarecrow Weekend Hours:

Friday, October 9: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Saturday, October 10: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Sunday, October 11: 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM

ParentVUE and StudentVUE

Parents, did you know that your students can also download the StudentVUE app to stay up to date on their grades?

Encourage your child to add the StudentVUE (New) app from the Google Play or Apple Store. This will help to build independence in checking their grades, see upcoming due dates, and be the first one to communicate to their teacher when they have a concern.

Students will login using their Google email ID#@students.d303.org to connect to their district account. They can see Mrs. Simoncelli in the LRC for any support needed further.
