Remote Learning Supply Pick Up

It is hard to believe that we are already nearing the start of our second trimester.  Our teachers have been working hard to organize materials for students who are participating in fully remote learning.  We have blocked out some time on Wednesday, October 28th for supply pick up. 

  • Supply pick up will take place in the circle drive on Norwood Lane
  • Place a piece of paper on your dashboard with your child’s first name, last name, and room number
  • A staff member will place your child’s materials in the trunk of your car

Supply pickup schedule

Text Messaging

If you would like to receive a text message from District 54, you can sign up by texting the word YES to the number 68453. You can opt out at any time by texting STOP to the same number. Make sure you are texting from a phone number that we have on file in District 54.

Hybrid Drop & Go

Students utilizing drop and go, should have be able to exit the car independently.  We ask that parents do not park in the drop and go lane.  If you child needs help getting out, please plan to park and walk your child to their entrance area. 

For the safety of our staff and students, students and parents are only permitted to cross the street at the corner of Norwood and Lowell lane, where there is a crossing guard present.

Library Books

You can return these by dropping them off at supply pick up or bringing them to school on your assigned hybrid learning day.
