Have a great day,

Graduation Photographer - Our 8th graders are graduating on Friday, June 18 at 2 ceremonies (10AM and 2PM). We are asking to see if any parent(s) are interested in photographing (amatuer or professional) the event. Please respond to this email or email Ms. Ridgway (aridgway@cps.edu) if you are interested.
Virtual Book Fair Reminder - This is the last weekend for the bookfair. It ends at Midnight on Sunday.
Use the link:https://www.scholastic.com/bf/skinnernorth to start shopping the book fair today! We're also working to provide our classrooms and libraries with more books. If you can help in this quest (previously called teacher wish lists), consider purchasing a gift card and sending/addressing it to: Skinner North New Books. Send it to the email SNbookfairwishlists@gmail.com. This will directly get many new books into the classrooms and library our students use next year.
CIWP Committee Meeting – The next CIWP Committee Meeting is Thursday, June 3 at 8AM. This is a virtual meeting. See the agenda for login information.
Friends of Skinner North - FoSN needs officers. There were only a few offices filled at the recent elections. FoSN has been such a wonderful support to our school and has been integral to community building. If interested, I encourage you to find out more information about open officer roles and other volunteer opportunities at https://www.fosn.net/fosn-volunteer-needs.
COVID Student Testing Update – Thank you to everyone who signed up for student COVID testing. School eligibility for student COVID testing is based on city data on COVID-19 rates in zip codes, which are updated monthly. For the month of June, Skinner North is no longer eligible based on the most recent data from the Chicago Department of Public Health.
Safeguarding Children in a Digital World - Pauline Dengler, the Community Liaison for the State’s Attorney’s Office Community Justice Center, is offering this free webinar for parents, caregivers and professionals on June 3rd at 6 pm. Registration is required. Use this link to register.
Travel Reminder - If you have traveled or plan to travel, please be aware of the guidance in regards to Chicago’s emergency travel order. It is important that you abide by the quarantine and testing guidance as it pertains to your trip. You can find more information at https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/sites/covid-19/home/emergency-travel-order.html. It’s important you follow this as to not potentially expose others.
Here is a helpful infographic with information regarding travel.
