CCSD93 Schools Celebrate Read Across America Week

Many of our schools celebrated Read Across America Week last week and used it as a way to emphasize the benefits of reading. I was honored to have the opportunity to serve as a guest reader for 3rd and 5th grade classrooms at Cloverdale Elementary School as part of their Mystery Staff Reader Read Across America event!

Flex Day Not Used, No School 3/17:

Need Childcare?

As a reminder, CCSD93 will not be using the “flex day” scheduled for March 17, 2023 as a school day, so there will be no school next Friday. This date was built in as an opportunity to potentially make up a school day if the need arose to cancel any other school day for inclement weather or any other emergency. 

If you are in need of childcare, click the image below to sign up for care with our partners at ActivKids from the Carol Stream Park District!

Please review the following for more information from CCSD93 and enjoy your weekend!

Sincerely,

Dr. David H. Hill

Superintendent of Schools

Cloverdale Students Raise More Than $21K for Lifesaving Heart Research

Throughout the past month, Cloverdale students raised a school record of $21,500 for lifesaving heart research for the American Heart Association as part of its Kids Heart Challenge! To celebrate, this week during PE classes, students took on a variety of activities to stay physically fit while learning about practices that contribute to positive mental health, including expressing kindness and gratitude, and stress-management techniques. As part of the Challenge, 50 Cloverdale families have even completed potentially lifesaving hands-only CPR training.

Heritage Lakes Students Partner With Chick-fil-A to Spread Sunshine

This week, Heritage Lakes 5th graders wrote uplifting messages and drawings on Chick-fil-A bags, which the fast food company’s Bloomingdale location will use to package food orders during its March 13-18 Sunshine Week. The students had a terrific time with the unique project, which aligns with SEL standards and has given them the opportunity to connect with the community around them. For their efforts, they’ll receive free lunch next week!
