A NOTE FROM OUR PRINCIPAL:

Dear HWS families,

We have wrapped up IAR testing this week for students in grades 3-5 and I am happy to report that we are done with standardized testing for the year!  The IAR or Illinois Assessment of Readiness test results will be shared next year.  If your child was absent for testing, we will start make up tests on Monday. 

Mark your calendars for our first family event in what seems like forever!  Our Spring Fling will be back this year on Thursday, May 12th from 5:30-7:30.  We will have food, face painting, games and our own Mr. DiDomenico will be entertaining the crowd with a performance as well.  We are very excited to bring back some family fun this year so cross your fingers for good weather and more details will be forthcoming as we get closer to the event! 

Enjoy the three day weekend! 

Sincerely, 

Gina Greenwald 

Principal

Community Open Houses for Building Our Future Together

BPS101 has completed the Community Engagement Sessions for the Building Our Future Together plan. In those sessions we learned that people want to see our school buildings and learn about some of the key areas that need improvements. Please join us for an Open House at RMS and JBN on April 27th from 5:00 to 8:00 PM at RMS or JBN, or BOTH! Volunteers and staff will be on hand at each location to show you around and answer questions about the buildings. Everyone is encouraged to attend even if you have been in the buildings before. Come see them in a new light. Additional information on the Building Our Future Together project can be found at bps101.net/boft.
