201: There will be a special District 201 Board of Education meeting this Thursday, June 3rd at approximately 6:00 pm at Morton East auditorium. A notice on the district website states: "The purpose of the meeting is to discuss with the community...the most current information available in regards to the 2010-2011 financial issues of the district..."
District 98: Tony Laureto, president of District 98 Board of Education for the past 15 years, is resigning as of June 4th. If there is anyone interested in serving this community as a member of the Board of Education, you must be a resident of North Berwyn for one year. Contact the district for details on how to express interest and submit your name as a candidate. The current Board of Education will fill the position with an appointed person until the next election.
District 100: At last week's Board of Education meeting, the District 100 Board approved Full-day kindergarten. Currently, kindergarteners are in school for 1/2 day (2 hr, 45 min). Offering full-day kindergarten follows the educational trend of more and more districts attempting to address the achievement gap and to best prepare students for the academic years ahead. In a survey of incoming kindergarteners, 95% preferred Full day. The district will hire 5 more full time teachers and all schools will create the space needed.
