This is a friendly reminder that all physicals and immunizations are due to the school nurse by 10/1/25.
If you received a letter in the mail and have not turned this documentation in yet, your student will not be able to attend school starting 10/1/25 until the documentation is complete. If you have a doctor's appointment for a physical scheduled, please make sure the nurse is aware of that appointment so your student can stay in school.
The end of the quarter is 10/16/25, so your student's attendance is crucial. Your student can bring their physical to the nurse's office or it can be faxed from the doctor's office to 217-718-7145. Thank you for your attention to this very important matter.
GET EXCITED! It's Spirit Week!

We had a wonderful event this past week for our Seniors that gave them insight on their future! Mr. Metzke, our Post Secondary Coach, works diligently to get our Seniors prepared for what their next steps will be after they graduate. This Pathway to the Future event was one of many examples that he plans for our students. We thank everyone who came together to make this possible for our students! Their future is very bright!
