The Beebe Leadership Club is proud to announce that “Pitch in a Paw for Haiti” raised $1,148.77!  All of the proceeds are being donated to the American Red Cross Haiti Relief fund.  Beebe students can feel a real sense of pride in knowing that they helped fulfill our district’s mission by being real community contributors. 

Parents and incoming 2010-2011 kindergarten students are invited to attend Kindergarten Preview on Thursday, February 25th (8:45 - 9:45 Last Names A - L; 10:30 - 11:30 Last Names: M - Z).  During this meeting parents will learn about District 203's Kindergarten Program and meet some of the Beebe staff students will interact with daily.  Please consult the Kindergarten Preview Pamphlet (ENG | SPA) and review the enrollment documents available online.

IF a late start or snow day is declared, parents and staff will be notified in the early morning via email and telephone call. This decision will also be posted on the District 203 website by 5:45 AM. Barring notification to the contrary, school will be in session as usual.

In early December, Naperville School District 203 announced the creation of a late start schedule as a POSSIBLE alternative to declaring a snow day. Because inclement weather in the early morning can sometimes lead to a decision to close the schools for an entire day, District 203’s new late start schedule provides the flexibility to begin the school day two hours later than normal (high schools will begin 1.75 hours later), to allow time for roads to be cleared and the temperature to rise.

“By employing a late start schedule on wintery days, we can still provide a quality educational experience without compromising safety or losing a whole day of instruction,” said Superintendent Mark Mitrovich.

For full information, including drop-off and school start schedules by level, see the Late Start & School Closings page. Dismissal times will remain as normal.
