New District 41 Website is Live!

We are excited to announce that the new District 41 website is now live at www.d41.org (including all new school sites). We hope you find the site easy to navigate, user friendly, and responsive to your mobile devices. As we continue to transition from the old to the new site, we welcome your feedback. Please send emails to webmaster@d41.org. We will continue to make adjustments to the site as we hear from the users. A website is never "done." It will change and evolve over time and will be updated regularly with new content. Thank you for your patience as we transition to the new website home for District 41!

New Connect41 Newsletter 

As a way to further connect with the five communities that we serve, we will be sending a print newsletter to the over 10,000 households within our boundaries twice a year. The first issue of Connect41 was sent out earlier this week. Click Here for Connect41. The next issue will be sent out in the spring. We hope this newsletter helps connect the school district with the overall community, including those who do not currently have children in our schools.
