Thank you to our Community Partner – IBJI!
When accidents happen, the ER isn’t your only choice. For non-life-threatening orthopedic concerns, there's no need to spend hours in a crowded hospital waiting room. At IBJI's OrthoAccess walk-in clinics, you can be treated faster for simple fractures, dislocations, slips, trips, falls, sprains, strains, sports injuries, and work-related injuries. See a certified orthopedic specialist right from the start. Click here for hours and locations.

CTAD News
With events like prom, after parties, graduation and summer around the corner, it's good to be alert for warning signs of risky behavior. While most DHS students choose not to drink alcohol or to use marijuana, we all know temptation can be strong for many of our teens. In CTAD's April newsletter, local parents share four ways we can help protect them and when you might need to intervene.
- Prepping for year end celebrations (and what red flags to look out for)
- CTAD recognizes DHS & HPHS student role models: Sloane Farber, Nathan Margulis, Ariel Oberfeld, Joseph Shapkarov, Justine Taitler & Ava Van Every.
- DHS students choose to be drug-free to perform their best at sports, art and academics
- Ways to support a loved one's recovery
- Highland Park closes a legal loophole to protect youth from cannabis

Who are we?
The District 113 Education Foundation supports teachers and newly formed student groups as well as special events throughout the school year. This year alone, we funded over $30,000 to support our students' educational experience. Some highlights include a Driving Simulator, which will offer ALL students a safe and controlled environment to experience realistic driving scenarios, and School AI which will enhance both teacher/staff productivity as well as student learning.
This month, we are pleased to fund the Honorarium for this year's Genocide Awareness Keynote Speaker, Dr. Danny M. Cohen, who will speak to our students about genocide and mass atrocity in all its forms.
