Education Partners, hello.

Here is this week’s slice of District 202 news and information…

• Important Reminders:
  • Stadium renovations are under way at Plainfield High School-Central Campus and Plainfield South High School through September 12, 2016. Therefore the associated outdoor tracks and outdoor stadium fields are closed to walkers and other stadium-related activities.

We have created a special page with both photos and videos of this project on the district web site. We will also continue to post information to District 202’s Twitter and Facebook accounts.

• The 2016-17 School Year calendar has been amended to extend Spring Break by two days, so that students are not in school on Election Day.

• Here are the district’s Summer Building Hours.

• Catholic Charities will host its annual Back to School Fair from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Thursday, August 4, 2016 at St. Clare Campus (the former Guardian Angels home), 1550 W. Plainfield Road, Joliet.

• Ira Jones Middle School recently was accepted to participate in the 2016-2017 “Energizing Student Potential” program sponsored by the Exelon Foundation, Commonwealth Edison, British Petroleum, Nicor Gas, Peoples Gas and North Shore Gas.
