Hello, everyone!
Dismissal today will run as normal. THERE IS NO PARKING AVAILABLE IN THE FRONT OF THE SCHOOL. Track students will be dismissed from Door E on Connell Ave. Again, there is no parking available in the front of the school.
Arrival for the remainder of the week will run exactly as it did today. Walkers and car-riders may enter through door C. Please do NOT drop off any students in the front of the school, as the doors will be locked. Families dropping off students via car should form a line on Belleview Ave. Any students crossing the street must use the designated crosswalks to do so. Please do not create unsafe situations for our students.
If you have any questions, please call the main office at 815-725-5321. Thank you!

Last Wednesday, April 22, our 6th and 7th graders traveled to Springfield to visit the state capital! They explored our state’s rich history and government through visits and guided tours to the Illinois State Capitol Building as well as Abraham Lincoln’s home, Lincoln’s museum, and Lincoln’s tomb. Shout out to Mr. Domenico and Mr. Olson for organizing an awesome trip for our students!
With the support of Rockdale and Joliet area business partners, we were able to raise over $10,000 to fully fund this trip, so that no student was left behind due to financial constraint. We are so grateful for their support so that our students have the opportunity to learn about our state's history through an immersive experience. Thank you to those community partners that helped support our Rams!
