Thomas Dooley Elementary School

The third trimester Whole Child Report Cards are now available on the District 54 parent portal, or by visiting families.sd54.org.

This report card offers a comprehensive overview of a student's progress, encompassing not only academic achievements but also their development in various social-emotional areas including extracurricular involvement and school attendance.

We encourage families to review the report card thoroughly and discuss their children's progress with them.
