Principally speaking Principally speaking

Thank you to all of our families and room parents for joining us for our Halloween parade, pie throwing, and classroom parties! The games and crafts were so fun, creative, and well done. Seeing all the wonderful costumes — and the smiles and laughter throughout the day — made it such a special celebration.

Have a wonderful evening, and don’t forget to set your clocks back on Saturday night!

Parent Education & Empowerment Series: Parent Education & Empowerment Series:

Guiding Students from Avoidance to Achievement

Join us for an engaging and practical three-part series designed to help parents navigate the growing challenges of anxiety and school avoidance. Led by Dr. Megan Schmitz of Vital Living Wellness Solutions, these sessions will give parents tools to:

  • Recognize anxiety in their child and understand its impact on learning and growth.

  • Learn strategies to balance empathy and compassion with boundaries and expectations.

  • Gain concrete tools to support positive school attendance and resilience.

Where: St. Charles North High School Auditorium
Time: 6:00–8:00 p.m.
Dates: October 8 • October 22 • November 12



This series is designed to strengthen the partnership between families and schools, offering tools and strategies that foster belonging, perseverance, and achievement. Together, we can create the support and consistency children need to thrive. Please note: An interpreter/translator will be available for families who need language support.
