School District 11 is getting ready to launch a new electronic flyer communication tool called Peachjar on April 12. This “green” initiative will save our schools tons of paper and reduce copy costs by thousands of dollars. On top of that, posting school flyers in this electronic backpack removes a significant administrative burden from teachers, office staff, and volunteers.  No action is required on your part. You will receive a welcome email from our service provider (Peachjar) that includes a username and password. This is provided to give you the opportunity to manage your account and flyer delivery preferences. You do not need to login to receive or view school digital flyers. This system is used exclusively for distribution of school-approved flyers. Your email address will not be shared or used for any other purpose. Thank you for supporting our efforts to ensure parents and guardians are well informed about school programs, activities, and events. For more information, please visit https://www.d11.org/peachjar

It may feel like winter outside now, but before you know it, summer will be here, along with the FREE D11 Summer Enrichment Series! The Summer Enrichment Series consists of three weekly classes open to all current D11 kindergarten through 7^th grade students and will run June 11 – June 29^th this year. These hands-on, interactive classes offer students fun learning opportunities with a focus on science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM). Registration will open in early April but remember to mark your calendars and keep an eye out for this great opportunity!
