One lucky Charles Reed Elementary School kindergarten student won a ride to school in a fire truck last month. The Joliet Fire Department picked up the student and a friend from home, gave them a tour of the fire station, and dropped them at school. #202proud

What a day! The 73rd Plainfield Community Homecoming Parade filled downtown with music, school spirit, and community pride this past weekend!

This year’s theme, “Literary Legends – Celebrating Famous Characters from the Last 100 Years,” honored the Plainfield Area Public Library’s centennial. Leading the parade was Grand Marshal Mindy Jackson, the library’s School Services Librarian, who has spent decades inspiring a love of reading in District 202 students. 📚✨

A wonderful tradition for decades, the parade once again showcased the energy, talent, and pride of our schools and community.

All students MUST have a signed "Acceptable Use" form turned in by Friday, September 12th. If it is not turned in, access to your students device will be turned off. While many families have turned this in, we are still missing over 200! In grades 2 through 5 the "Acceptable Use Policy" is part of the student handbook form, if you turned that in - you are good. In grades kindergarten and 1st, there is one form (double sided). One side is the handbook and the other is the Acceptable Use Policy, both sides will need to be signed. If you need new forms please let your classroom teacher know.
Thank you,
