A quick reminder that we have our last Town Hall bond issue meeting tonight at Eagle Elementary. The meeting will start at 7:00 p.m. and be held in the Eagle commons. We are trying a different format to the meeting tonight. We will have a pre-recorded video of the presentation playing in another room, for those that have not seen the full presentation. The main room we meet in we will allow for more questions to be asked. We will have different tables set up so people can get their questions answered more effectively. We will have a table set up to answer questions specifically for design/construction, educational purposes and financial considerations. We will also allow for anyone to tour the building if they would like. For those of you who have not had the chance to make it to a meeting, you can find the presentation on our district website (www.district145.org). We hope to see everyone tonight at 7:00 p.m. in Eagle.

We are so thankful for Ms. April (Mrs.Michael), our school's Registered Nurse! She takes care of not only our students but our staff too--always treating with love and compassion. Today we are celebrating Ms. April!
