There are several things you need to do in Family Access prior to the school year starting and we wanted to compile it in one easy list. We need you to review:
-
The updated 2023-2024 Student/Parent/Guardian Handbook, which requires your acknowledgment.
-
The 2023-2024 Directory and Publication Opt-Out Form, which requires your acknowledgment. If you are opting out, choose the applicable box(es) and hit submit. If you don't want to opt your student out, leave the boxes unchecked and hit submit.
Note: For the 23-24 school year, District 109 will share directory information with the PTO or PTSO in each building for the purposes of publishing a Parent/Guardian Directory at the beginning of the school year.
