Superintendent's Message

Dr. Teresa Hill

May 12, 2023

Dear South Holland School District 151 Families,

Great things are happening in School District 151! Believe it or not, the end of the 2022-23 school year is just five weeks away. During this time of year, our amazing teachers, staff, and administrators are keeping the children engaged and excited by involving them in a variety of field trips, hands-on experiences, enrichment activities, and special events. These activities are designed to expand students' horizons and allow them to use the skills they have learned throughout the school year.

As we are finishing this school year, we are already planning for 2023-24. I would like to share some important updates for the coming year.

Administrative Changes

As you know, Mrs. Patricia Payne, Principal of Coolidge Middle School, will be retiring after 39 years of outstanding service to the students at South Holland School District 151. Mrs. Payne’s leadership, guidance, and support helped to shape the lives and careers of generations of children, families, and educators. The entire School District 151 community thanks Mrs. Payne for her years of dedicated service.

Mrs. Chevia Rush has been appointed as the next Principal of Coolidge Middle School. Mrs. Rush will continue in her current role as Assistant Principal of Madison School until the end of the school year.  She will transition into her new role on July 1, 2023.  Mrs. Rush was a teacher at Coolidge Middle School for many years before becoming Assistant Principal at Madison School.  As many of our families know from experience, Mrs. Rush is a strong, energetic, and positive leader who is devoted to the children of our community. She will do a great job as Coolidge’s Principal.
