Dear West Oak Intermediate Families,

As we wrap up an amazing school year, I want to thank all of our families for your partnership, support, and encouragement throughout the year. WOIS is such a special place because of our students, staff, and families working together as one Wolfpack.

We’ve had so many fun celebrations over the past few weeks, including Kindness Day, concerts, assemblies, awards, and Field Day yesterday! A huge thank you to all of our PTO volunteers for helping make Field Day such a success for our students.

A very special congratulations to our 5th graders as they prepare for their transition to middle school! We are so proud of all they have accomplished, and they are absolutely ready for this next chapter. We know they will continue to do amazing things at WOMS!

Wishing all of our WOIS families a safe, relaxing, and joy-filled summer! ☀️💙

Natalie Kalette

Principal

West Oak Intermediate School

• Report Cards: Trimester 3 report cards will be sent out digitally this afternoon. Please contact our front office if you have any questions. 

• Registration for the 2026–2027 School Year: Registration for the 2026–2027 school year is open! Families should have received an email containing their Snap Code and a link to complete online registration. Please complete registration as soon as possible to ensure your child is ready for the upcoming school year.

If you did not receive the email, are unable to locate your Snapcode, or have any questions about the registration process, please contact Dora Baron at dbaron@dist76.org for assistance.

• Student Council Store: With the funds raised through the school store, student council was able to adopt a wolf through the Lincoln Park Zoo! Thank you to everyone who supported the student store over the past week. 

• D76 CARES: At D76, the well-being of our students and families is our top priority. Understanding the critical role mental health plays in student success, we have launched D76 CARES - a comprehensive initiative aimed at improving access to quality mental health services across our community. D76 CARES stands for Community, Advocacy, Resilience, Engagement, and Support. Treatment services are initially provided free of charge to district families for up to 8 sessions. Click HERE for treatment request.

Keep the Learning Alive: Summer is a wonderful time to rest, but you can easily keep your child’s brain active by weaving reading and real-world math into your daily fun, like reading together before bed or calculating the total on a restaurant bill. Staying engaged with these small, playful habits over the break prevents the "summer slide" and ensures they head into the next school year confident and ready to learn!

Your student's classroom teacher should be your first point of contact. For building-related information, please call the front office at 847-970-3544 or contact the following individuals via email: 

• Front Office Staff: Ms. Kailey Leon: kleon@dist76.org & Cinthia Maldonado: cmaldonado@dist76.org 

• Principal: Natalie Kalette: nkalette@dist76.org 

• Nurse: Julie Marchese: jmarchese@dist76.org 

Have a great summer! We look forward to seeing you in August. To stay up to date on PTO news, follow us on Instagram or Facebook!
