First Graders Visit District 102 for Hands-on Lesson
Pritchett Elementary first grade students visited the District Office last week as part of their economics curriculum. Students discovered that most departments provide "services." The fieldtrip ended with a tour of the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and lunch at McDonalds for a rock solid explanation of "goods."

From D102 Nursing Staff:
District 102 absences due to both H1N1 flu and seasonal flu continue to remain very low. Flu can be unpredictable though and activity may rise and fall throughout the year. We will continue to monitor illnesses at school and notify D102 families if there is a significant increase due to H1N1.
We are also continuing our efforts to promote hand hygiene and cover your cough through education about the flu. Touchless automatic hand sanitizers have been installed in all classrooms and common areas in all four buildings. Students, faculty, and visitors are encouraged to use these as needed. Read more...
Say Boo to the Flu. Please link to our flu information page.

2009-2010 Student Handbooks Online!
This year, in our continuing effort to “go green,” we have posted our Student Handbooks online. (Once there, look to the left under “Our Schools.”) Also posted is the letter parents/guardians must sign stating they have reviewed the handbook with their child and agree to follow its rules and guidelines. (A paper copy of this letter was sent home with students this week.) If for some reason you are unable to access the handbook and/or letter, a copy will be available in your school office.
The Board of Education and district staff feel that students will make responsible decisions regarding their behavior when they understand the rules and the consequences of violating them. When we all work together, we keep our energy focused where it should be – on student learning.
As always, please contact your child's school or my office at 847/353-5660 if you need any assistance.
