Parents and Guardians,
Reminder: There will be no after-school tutoring for Elementary or Jr. High students this Thursday, October 6th, or on Monday, October 10th.
Students will not be in attendance Friday, October 7th due to Teachers will attend the Regional Office Institute in Eldorado, Illinois. Monday, October 10th is a school holiday.
Seniors and Parents- Just a reminder that on Wednesday, October 12th, from 3:30 pm until 7:30 pm; there will be a financial aid night in the high school library. Financial Aid reps from SIC and other organizations will be here to help students and parents complete their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA not only helps students get money for college, it is a graduation requirement from the State of Illinois. Information about what is needed is posted on Mr. Cruson's google classroom as well as a video presentation about the financial aid process. I would highly encourage students and parents to come that evening to benefit in filling this application.
Parents and Guardians,
We are looking for more 'Little Hawks" to bring into the district. We have received an additional Pre-K grant and will open a third Pre-K Classroom this 22-23 school year. Pre-K screening days were last week; if you missed it and would like to send your three or four-year-old to Gallatin County Preschool this year, we now have open spots. Call (618) 272-3821 extension 1308 to set up a screening for your child. Our Pre-K Teacher Leader, Mrs. Brandi Respondec, will conduct screenings. We are excited to offer our community this additional classroom. Don't delay; call today!
