🏈 DPW Elementary had a few special visitors earlier this week! Fighting Illini Football Players spent time in several classrooms, connected with students and brought lots of excitement to the school.

We’re especially grateful for their generosity. The team presented one teacher with a $1,000 donation and made an additional $1,000 donation to support the school and its students.

The cheers of delight from our students could be heard from down the hall. Thank you to our neighbors at the U of I for always taking the time to visit our schools. The impact extends far beyond just one day. 🧡🖤

September is Attendance Awareness Month. 🧡🖤

We want our students in school as much as possible. Strong attendance has a proven impact on student success. Each day a student is in school is an opportunity to build relationships, learn, grow and feel a greater sense of belonging to their school community.

Every day counts, every student matters. Please let us know how we can support you.

We know there are varying circumstances where a student may need to stay home. We understand life happens. Our goal is for each student to be in class as much as possible.
