NEXT BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING APRIL 29
This is a reminder that the next regular BOE meeting is Monday, April 29, 7:30 p.m. at the Central Services Office, 793 N. Main St., Glen Ellyn. Agenda and packet information will be posted at least 48 hours in advance of the meeting. Please note that this meeting was originally set for April 22--the date was changed so as not to conflict with the D41 PTA Council Legislative Forum (see below). |
STUDENT ODYSSEY ASSIGNMENTS WILL REFLECT NEW MAP SCORES
Spring MAP testing is underway; as students complete these tests, they are assigned new folders in Odyssey that reflect their spring scores. Since students should be working on the new activities, the old folders that were based on previous scores are going away. Any activities that have been assigned directly by teachers will remain. As always, if a parent feels that the assigned activities are either too difficult or too easy for the student, he or she may contact their child's teacher, who can assign different activities. |
