** Beginning April 9th, meals will be available for pickup on Mondays and Thursdays only between 9:10-10am. **

Dear Parents, Staff, and Community Members:

I hope this message finds you and your families safe and well. Today, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker announced that E Learning/remote learning in Illinois will be extended through April 30 in order to slow down the spread of COVID-19.

During this time, on-site learning will remain suspended but our schools’ commitment to learning and education will remain open and learning will continue for all students - just through a different format.

While it is not ideal, we want to assure you that at Chicago Heights School District 170, our teachers and staff are fully engaged and willing to take on this new challenge and push forward with E Learning/remote learning, engaging with students and continuing with our food distribution program.

I know this is not the school year that any of us imagined, but I want to thank you for your patience and understanding as we have dealt with this unprecedented situation together.

I will continue to provide updates as they become available.

Be well and stay safe.

Kind regards,

Tom Amadio

Superintendent

Estimados padres, personal y miembros de la comunidad:

Espero que este mensaje les encuentre a usted y a sus familias sanos y salvos. Hoy, el gobernador de Illinois, JB Pritzker, anunció que E Learning / aprendizaje remoto en Illinois se extenderá hasta el 30 de abril para frenar la propagación de COVID-19.

Durante este tiempo, el aprendizaje en el sitio seguirá suspendido, pero el compromiso de nuestras escuelas con el aprendizaje y la educación seguirá abierto y el aprendizaje continuará para todos los estudiantes, solo a través de un formato diferente.

Si bien no es lo ideal, queremos asegurarle que en el Distrito Escolar 170 de Chicago Heights, nuestros maestros y personal están totalmente comprometidos y dispuestos a asumir este nuevo desafío y avanzar con E Learning / aprendizaje remoto, interactuar con los estudiantes y continuar con nuestro programa de distribución de alimentos.

Sé que este no es el año escolar que ninguno de nosotros imaginamos, pero quiero agradecerles por su paciencia y comprensión, ya que hemos lidiado juntos con esta situación sin precedentes.

Continuaré proporcionando actualizaciones a medida que estén disponibles.

Estar bien y mantenerse a salvo.

Saludos cordiales,

Tom Amadio

Dear Parents and Family Members,

Welcome to our 5th grade team website for the 2019-2020 school year. This year all of the fifth grade students will rotate between the two fifth grade teachers. Mrs. Williams will lead the ELA and social studies lessons. Mrs. Graziano will lead the math and science lessons.

Our school day begins at 7:50 a.m and ends at 2:40 p.m.

This site changes daily. We will post information, useful resources, supportive videos, songs, and fun learning tools here. This interactive site will become an active part of your child's daily life this year. Practice will be posted daily on the practice tab.

Please visit this site often. We will post our student work, classroom photos, and parent information here.

Thank you,

Mrs. Williams & Mrs. Graziano
