Back to School Bash - 8/27 This annual, outdoor PTA - sponsored get together will be held on Friday, August 27th. Please check out this flyer for details. Shield Testing Opt-In District 25 is planning to begin the SHIELD testing program on September 8, 2021 for the students who have opted in. To opt your child in to participate in SHIELD testing, fill out this form and turn it into our front office. The SHIELD Illinois saliva-based test -- developed by the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) -- is able to detect COVID-19 and its variants in symptomatic, pre-symptomatic, and asymptomatic individuals. For more information in the form of a Q&A on the COVID-19 SHIELD test in our schools, click here. Here is one common question we are being asked: Can I opt my child in to be SHIELD tested for when they are a close contact, only, thus opting them out of being tested weekly? No, in order to guarantee a student's participation in the SHIELD testing program when they are a close contact, they must already be an opted-in participant. We are working with a 3rd party provider, and that provider needs time to get a student entered into the program. We cannot guarantee that someone could be entered on day 1, 3, 5, or 7 in order to test-to-stay. Traffic Volunteers Still Needed Your PTA needs you! If you or a friend or someone you know is interested in helping out with the traffic team (as of Monday, August 16th) we still need coverage in these slots:
