Chicago Public Schools

It has been far too long since I updated our blog!
November just flew past me with no hint of it slowing down in time for December.

We were blessed to have Ellen Lourden from the Chicago Public School system come and speak to us about the ins and outs and various, numerous options we have for our children when they reach school age. If you missed the meeting, but have questions, or if you attended the meeting, yet still have questions - please feel free to e-mail Ellen at elorden@cps.k12.il.edu.us (I will double check this e-mail address and repost later if need be).

We were also blessed to have Debbie Rundquist (she works and her children work in our Moppets department) speak with us about home schooling. If you have questions for Debbie, contact Katie Smiljanich and she will put you in touch with Debbie. sulkat77@hotmail.com

I will be posting again very soon with information about the upcoming meeting in December.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and we'll see you in time for the Holidays!
