CHSS is the host venue for a Special
School District meeting tonight to
review school calendar concepts for 2017.

School District 52 officials are turning to the public tonight to provide some final feedback on plans for next years School calendar, as the District hosts a public forum to discuss proposed changes that could see a two week Spring break put in place for 2017.

Through the first three months of the year, parents and guardians have had the opportunity to review the pros and cons of the calendar options, with three versions for consideration, two which feature alternate versions of the two week break and the other keeping to the current format of a one week Spring break in place.
