Happy 100th birthday to our district's band program!

This school year marks the 100th anniversary of the District 131 band program.  Stay "tuned" for information about events throughout our district celebrating this achievement!

A fresh start

Best of luck to all District 131 students, parents, and staff!  Let's make this school year a success!

Celebrate freedom! Happy Fourth of July to all!

Winding down...

Attitude is key!

It's about the money...or is it??

Money is a powerful motivation for employees in most jobs.  So is being appreciated, respected, and making a positive difference in the lives of others.  What motivates District 131 employees? 

Meeting in the middle: the fine art of communication and compromise

Deciding how best to spend our district's money is very challenging.  Do we raise teachers' salaries, reduce benefits, lower class sizes?  Should taxes be increased?  Ideally our School Board will make choices in students' best interests.  NOW is the time to let our administration know our opinions and priorities!
