Johnsburg School District 12 held the annual district spelling bee on Wednesday, May 3rd at Johnsburg High School. Students from grades 3 – 5 participated in this event. Students compete in classroom and grade level bees in order to represent their entire grade at the district bee. Students who reach the final bee have achieved a great deal and we are very proud of their accomplishments.
In our efforts to keep our parents and community members informed we wanted to share that this evening, around 5:30 PM, the fire department was called to Johnsburg High School due to a dryer catching fire in our custodial area. The dryer is utilized daily to clean towels and other school-owned resources, and experienced a technical failure leading to a minor fire. No students were directly affected by the fire, and it was isolated to a staff-only custodial area of the building.
Johnsburg Community Unit School District 12 will receive bids for the Partial Reroof to Ringwood School Primary Center at 4700 N. School Road, Ringwood, Illinois, and James C. Bush Elementary School at 2117 W. Church Street, Johnsburg, Illinois.
In an effort to provide additional forms of communication to our parents regarding their students performance, we have recently made some enhancements to our student information system, Skyward. These enhancements provide parents the opportunity to sign-up for additional email notifications that will be sent automatically. The new notifications are configured within a parent's Family Access account and include:
Kayla Toussaint – State Three-Point Competition – Kevin Shelton asked the Board to join with him in commending Kayla Toussaint for qualifying for the State Three-Point Competition. He described the levels and pressure that she had to go through in order to make it to the state level where she made nine shots which left her one shy of making it to the fop four in the final round.
Johnsburg High School is proud to announce the opening of online registration for summer 2012 athletic camps. For the second year, athletic camp registration can be processed at anytime using the camp registration system. At the time of registration parents will be prompted to pay with a credit card.
Alexander Bak – Boys State Winner – Kevin Shelton asked the Board to join with him in commending High School junior Alexander Bak for being selected as this year’s Boys State Winner. He praised and highlighted some of the fine qualities for which Alexander was chosen and noted that he is very involved with the band, National Honor Society and CARES.
As part of our continued effort in becoming a Blue Ribbon Lighthouse School District, we are once again seeking community feedback in the decision-making process. Please take this opportunity to complete a survey on Johnsburg High School athletics and co-curricular activities, as your input is a valuable part of our process.
