We wrapped up 2023 at Dooley with so many wonderful Holiday celebrations and memorable moments! Our students enjoyed the Santa parade on Tuesday afternoon put on by our Schaumburg Police and Fire Department. Thank you to our PTA and winter party volunteers for planning engaging and fun parties for our students!
We are so grateful to be in a community of kind, caring, and dedicated families who care so deeply about the success of every child. We hope you enjoy the Holidays with family and friends. We can’t wait to welcome you back on January 8th!
Our staff highlight this week is Ms. Nowak’s 1st grade class. We hope you enjoy reading all about Room 105!
Mrs. Pappas also shared some highlights from all the fun our students are having this month in P.E. Enjoy!
Here are a few reminders as flu and other viruses begin to circulate.
-Please keep your child home for 24 hours until they are fever free without the use of fever-reducing meds. Vomiting/diarrhea must have ceased for 24 hours.
-If your child is diagnosed with strep throat or pink eye, they may return to school after 24 hours on antibiotics as long as symptoms are improving and they are fever-free.
-Students testing covid positive should stay home for 5 days from the onset of symptoms. IDPH suggests wearing a mask for 5 additional days.
-Although coughs often linger, they should be under control before returning to school. A mask is available in the health office if needed.
-Children who have a fever of 100 degrees F or higher as well as a child who vomits or has diarrhea during the school day will be sent home.
Please be certain that your contact numbers are current and that you call Dooley’s attendance line to report your child’s absence 847-357-6250. Your partnership is greatly appreciated!
There is a State of Illinois law which requires all students in kindergarten, second, and sixth grade to have a dental examination by May 15th of the school year. The dental exam may be dated up to 18 months prior to May 15, 2024 (dated no earlier than 11/15/2022).
An opportunity to meet this requirement as well as receive low cost dental care for your child at any grade level is available through the Smile Illinois Dental Program. They are currently setting up mobile dental clinics throughout SD 54. Campanelli School is the clinic site for both Dooley and Campanelli families. This one day clinic will be offering dental services on 1/29/2024 during school hours. An appointment time will be scheduled. (parents must provide transportation)
In order to participate in these services you must complete online registration or contact the Dooley school office for a paper copy. Please visit the SMILE ILLINOIS website for more information including online registration

If you have any questions regarding this program or online registration please call 888-833-8441. Don’t miss this great opportunity to promote your child’s dental health.
