There is so much that goes into planning for a new school year. Many of our teacher leaders and administrators were hard at work last week collaborating and planning for the 2024-25 school year. We're so grateful for our leadership! ๐

While school may be out for our students, many of our teachers and support staff are busy both learning and planning for the next school year! โ๐
Teachers from Itasca, Keeneyville Elementary School District 20, and Medinah School District 11 gathered together for a two-day training. This course focused on the influence of social-emotional factors in learning. Teachers gained a clear understanding of the Quantum Learning System and practiced applying new techniques in a supportive environment.
We're excited for all of our professional learning planned for this summer!

Franzen Fourth graders were able to listen and ask questions to Dr. Merrilee Guenther, a paleontologist from Elmhurst University and an Itasca community member. She presented to the students in a whole group and then visited each classroom with her fossils and rock samples. Each student even got to pick out a rock from her collection to take home! Students enjoyed making connections and expanding their knowledge on the topic.
What a perfect way to end our literacy unit on Geology!

While many people contributed this school year- Amy Reuter, Milissa Riley and Heather Buske contributed significantly to Benson Primary Wellness Wednesdays.
