π Important Notice for Parents! π
As we step into the beautiful season of spring πΈ , we want to draw attention to a common trend: attendance tends to decline during this time. It's crucial to address this issue as your child's consistent attendance remains the focus, especially as they approach important assessments and exams.
How can you help?
π¨βπ©βπ§βπ¦ Encourage your child to attend school every day, unless they are genuinely unwell.
β° Ensure your child arrives at school on time to make the most of each learning opportunity.
π Communicate with us promptly if your child is unable to attend school due to illness or other reasons.
We want to partner with you to improve attendance and continue the year strong! #attendancematters

SHS freshmen work with Dr. Alonzo Kelly today at the Student Leadership Summit. Our biggest takeaway we want to share our Warrior family: "Dead last is better than quitting the race. Don't listen to those who quit or never even joined the race." #LeadershipSummit #DrKelly #GoWarriors

Dr. Dail and Makenzi Borton, senior at Sterling High School, attended the Illinois State University Education Job Fair to recruit future teachers for our openings. Who better to help recruit future teachers than a current SHS senior going into education and attending Illinois State in the Fall? #jointheSPSfamily

Again this year Sterling High School will be participating in the 5Essentials Survey. SHS Parents/Guardians, please use the link below to participate in the survey.
Link to survey: http://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/
ABOUT THE SURVEY
Last year, schools across Illinois participated in the Tenth annual 5Essentials Survey of Learning Conditions: Organizing Schools for Improvement this past academic year.ββ This survey generates valuable dataβ that districts can use to guide their ongoing efforts to improve schools and to offer students an excellent education. The survey is another improvement tool that allows districts and the state to share data as a means to inform parents and community members about the schoolβs learning environment. The Illinois 5Essentials Survey is administered online by Chicago Impact at the University of Chicago on behalf of the Illinois State Board of Education. Data and indicators are a result from an anonymous administration of the survey instrument.β
