Dear South Holland School District 151 Families,

Welcome to the 2020-21 school year!

As you are aware, all children who attend Taft, Eisenhower, Madison and Coolidge will participate in Online Remote Learning for the first semester of the school year (i.e. August 31, 2020 – January 15, 2021).

To support Remote Learning and ensure that all students and families are prepared for the start of online instruction, teachers and staff members will spend August 31 through September 4 preparing their online classrooms, making contact with all students and families, preparing online Open House information and videos, and assisting with the distribution of technology devices, school supplies, and curriculum materials.

The following is what families can expect and some things families may do this week:

• Beginning on Monday, August 31, 2020, your child’s teacher(s) and/or other staff members will call you to introduce themselves and provide you and your child with information about their class.  Please be on the lookout for this call.  When you speak to the teacher or staff member, please make sure that the school district has the best contact information for you.

• Please make sure that your registration is complete.  If you are new to the district, you will need to bring documents to the district office such as your child’s birth certificate and Illinois Transfer Form after you have submitted your online registration.  If you have submitted the online registration but you are being told that your registration is not complete, please contact the district office to schedule an appointment to bring in your documents.
