No student attendance on Monday, October 27 for teacher institute.
Our 5th grade students got to participate in a long standing River View tradition last week - Outdoor Ed. Students traveled through Hammel Woods over two days and explored education through a different lens-using math, science, language and SS skills while broadening their team building skills as well. This is always a memorable event and this year was no different!
We are #202proud of our principals. Happy National Principals Month. #ILSchoolStories @IlPrincipals @ISBENews @ILSchoolNet @IllinoisASA
What a day! The 73rd Plainfield Community Homecoming Parade filled downtown with music, school spirit, and community pride this past weekend!
This year’s theme, “Literary Legends – Celebrating Famous Characters from the Last 100 Years,” honored the Plainfield Area Public Library’s centennial. Leading the parade was Grand Marshal Mindy Jackson, the library’s School Services Librarian, who has spent decades inspiring a love of reading in District 202 students. 📚✨
A wonderful tradition for decades, the parade once again showcased the energy, talent, and pride of our schools and community.

Yesterday students in Ms Maltby's 2nd grade class completed a toothpaste activity. Students learned the importance of kindness and that once words are spoken they are hard to take back.
Students in Mrs. Noser's 2nd grade class squeezed toothpaste onto some paper plates. As a team, they then tried to put the toothpaste back into the tube using only toothpicks. This SEL lesson teaches students that: once you say unkind words it’s hard to take them back.
Mrs. Stennett's class read the story Too Tall Houses and decided to take on the challenge! Students went to work with nothing but index cards and tape. They found their grit as towers toppled over falling flat. After trying new idea after new idea we came out with a winning 1.5 ft tall tower! What a fun way to make a book come alive!
Students in Mrs Wolfe's third grade class participated in a "Getting to Know You" scavenger hunt. The kids found others with common "favorite things" as a way to make new friends.
Students in Mrs. Noser's room participated in a team building challenge called Save Fred. They had a great time and all groups were successful!
