​Possible Snow Days as needed to make up for school closing days
We operate on 176 school days in accordance to the requirements of the Illinois State Board of Education. 
​Occasionally, extreme weather may necessitate the closing of school.  If that occurs, we will make every effort to make up those days prior to the last day of school.

*CARE days are clearly marked on the calendar - caveat, we must have a minimum of 10 children registered to provide CARE on those days.

Changes to the calendar may occur--please check your classroom blogs for changes and updates. 

Montessori Mornings will be held the last Thursday of each month, except December & March.
