Dear Dirksen Senator Families,
It's officially springtime in Chicago and we are excited for our upcoming break which begins on Monday, March 26, 2018 to Friday, March 30, 2018. Hope our students have an opportunity to recharge and return to school ready to learn, attending school on-time every day. Children who are chronically absent, missing 10% of the school year, which is 18 days or 2 days a month, fall behind in school. School success goes hand in hand with good attendance.
Make Everyday Count-
