Shabonee Newsletter - Spring Break, IAR in April...
Spring Break
We wish all of our families a wonderful spring break. Shabonee will be closed from March 24 through March 28. School resumes on Monday, March 31.
National Arab American Heritage Month
We will continue our yearlong practice of highlighting various cultures and backgrounds by recognizing National Arab American Heritage Month from April 1-30. This is a time to honor the contributions and cultures of Arab Americans. Throughout the month, we will have recognition displays in the building, and the morning announcements will feature a question of the week. Students will also have access to a digital bookshelf to learn more and contribute to our displays with the activities found in the digital bookshelf.
Illinois Assessment of Readiness (Repost)
Shabonee students will take the state-required IAR assessments during a portion of each morning on April 7-11. Please avoid scheduling appointments during these days, if possible. If testing has started and children arrive late, they will wait in the office until the test session is finished before going to class. Makeup testing will take place beginning on April 14.
The assessment will be administered electronically, and students should have working headphones/earbuds for the audio portion of the tests. Most children already have a set of headphones/earbuds at school for classroom activities, and these will work fine. However, Bluetooth devices are not compatible with the test. Please talk with your son/daughter to make sure they have a working set here at school in April.

NEW DATE: There will be an informational session on the evening of April 15 at Wood Oaks at 6:00 PM for PARENTS ONLY of current fifth-grade children. Information about the transitions can also be found on our website.
