Spring 2021 Full Day School Times

As you plan for your family schedules in the return to full-day learning, we have created one location listing all the school and lunch times HERE. If you have any specific questions about your child’s school details, please reach out to your building principal.

Supporting In-Person Learning

Thank you for your support with our health protocols that allow us to safely operate within our schools for in-person learning:

Complete Your Child’s Daily Symptom and Temp Check Stickers
Please resume the daily check and ensure your child has a signed and dated sticker on the outermost layer of clothing for quick verification upon entry. Review the SCREENING REMINDERS here.

Stay Home When Sick
Please help us by keeping your child home if they are experiencing any symptoms or if anyone in the home is awaiting COVID test results due to symptoms. We are following all exclusion guidelines through the Illinois Department of Public Health with regard to school attendance and quarantine. Please contact your school nurse with any questions or concerns.

Follow Safe Practices in our Community
Wear Your Mask. Wash Your Hands. Watch Your Distance. Avoid non-essential travel and gatherings outside of your household. Taking these steps together as a community supports the health and safety of all. Please check that your child has a few back-up masks ready to go in their backpack. If your child requires new masks, please reach out to your school as we have plenty on hand to share.

Let’s continue to support one another as we navigate this unique year with care.

Thank you!

Exclusion Guidance from IDPH

On January 4, 2021, the school guidance for responding to COVID-19 cases or symptoms was updated by the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH). Our schools work with the Cook County Department of Public Health to respond using the following criteria:

- IDPH Decision Tree for Individuals
- IDPH FAQs

If a student is sent home sick with suspected COVID-19 symptoms during a school day the IDPH guidelines also require that all siblings must also be sent home and quarantine until an alternative diagnosis is made or a negative COVID test result is received. Due to community transmission levels, if an individual is a close contact to a confirmed case or experiencing symptoms, documentation of a negative RT-PCR COVID-19 test result is needed. Our school nurse will provide all information when a child is sent home. Our nurse will also remain in contact with the family to ensure appropriate next steps are followed to return to school.

Tech Help While at Home

Please SUBMIT any tech support needs to eHelp. Please share as much detail as possible to allow our team to support your needs.

• APP Status Page to check on the status of our most commonly used APPs.
• Guides and Tips Page for commonly asked TECH questions.

Substitutes Needed

District 35 is seeking daily substitutes to support our in-person learning model. Are you interested in supporting this option in our schools? Please:
- Apply online for the SUBSTITUTE position
- Complete the additional documentation and secure a license
We look forward to increasing options within our schools to support student learning. Thank you!

Safe Routes to Schools

We are pleased to see so many students biking or walking to school. Please view the Safe Routes to Schools information here to be aware of crossing guard locations, stop signs, and recommended routes for our students. Please also be mindful of the helmet law in Glencoe - all children under the age of 16 must wear a helmet while on a bicycle, scooter, or skateboard. Thank you for your support of this critical safety measure.

Quarantine Guidance for Close Contacts

For close contacts, the 14-day quarantine is still highly recommended by the CDC and CCDPH; however, the state and local health departments have advised our local districts that it is acceptable to follow the alternate quarantine time periods due to our effective mitigation efforts.

CLOSE CONTACT? The following revised quarantine timelines will be in effect for our students if they have been deemed a close contact:

-A 10-day quarantine and an absence of all symptoms during any day of the daily monitoring period is required. The student may return to school on the 11th day. While a shortened time period of quarantine is available for adults who also complete a RT-PCR test, this option is not allowed for children.

As always, please contact your school nurse directly with any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

We appreciate the many questions which have been shared regarding our plans for the opening of the 2020-2021 school year. In order to more thoroughly address these, we have prepared a Frequently Asked Questions document. This reflects the latest information from CDC and the Illinois State Board of Education as of July 26, 2020. We will continue to update this as additional information is shared to guide our planning.
