Weekly Family Update 10/18/21

   


What a gorgeous fall weekend we had! I hope you were able to enjoy it!!! 

Bus Updates
We are finalizing revised bus routes to hopefully communicate changes to families this week and then launch the new plan on Monday 10/25. This will reduce our routes by 2 and allow us much more flexibility in our staffing. This will result in more students on each route, so if you would prefer to opt out and drive your child instead, please us at 847-973-4028 or email Andrea DeMatteo at andrea.dematteo@foxlakke114.org


Spirit Wear Orders
If you ordered spirit wear from the American Outfitters online store at the beginning of the school year and have not received your order, you should have been contacted by the vendor on Friday. If you have not heard from them, please let me know. Huge backorders/supply chain issues have caused the delay, but I apologize for the lack of communication from the vendor. 

Weekly Surveillance Testing
For families opting in on surveillance testing, if you are ever DON'T get an email with the results,  please email results@ohareclinicallab.com and they will solve the problem.
