KCSD96 PARENT CONVERSATION
What’s typical? What’s ahead? Talk with KCSD96 parents and find out….

Parent Conversation is a come-when-you-can opportunity to meet other D96 parents to discuss a relevant topic or two (inspired by TED Talks, popular press articles/books, NPR). We talk about concerns and laugh together about our parenting adventures.

This is what happens at District 96 Parent Conversations, and you’re invited. Join in the next conversation–on Tues., Nov. 7, from 9–10:15 a.m. in the Community Room on the second floor of Sunset Foods at the intersection of Rt. 83 and Aptakisic. Questions? Please send email to [email protected] or call 847.459.4260, ext. 8022.
