Dear Country Meadows Families,
As we wrap up 2024, I want to take a moment to thank each of you for your incredible partnership this year. Together, we’ve supported our students in their learning, growth, and success, and I am so grateful to be part of this wonderful community.
Today, we wrapped up the year with our Winter Party. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to celebrate the season and their hard work before heading into winter break. Thank you, PTO and volunteers, for organizing fun activities!
Thank you again for your support and collaboration. I wish you all a happy and restful holiday season, and I look forward to seeing everyone in 2025!
Warm regards,
Aska Lempke
Principal

REPEAT *Winter Weather Gear*
As we wrap up our first few days of December, you can feel that temperatures start to dip. Please ensure that you are sending your child/ren to school with appropriate outerwear including winter coats, snow pants, boots, hats, and gloves. If you need assistance with outerwear, please contact the front office.
REPEAT *Safeway Communication*
As you may know, Safeway is KSD96's transportation partner for student busing. In the case that you need to speak with someone about a transportation-related issue during non-business hours (for example, when your school front offices are closed early in the morning or late in the evening), please contact the Safeway Transportation main line at 224-434-2399.
REPEAT *Medication Procedures and Handbook Policy*
As cold and flu season is upon us - reminder from our student handbook: "For the safety of all, medication must be brought to school by the parent or another responsible adult. The medication must be in its correct prescription container, showing the child’s name, the name of the drug, the dosage to be given, and the time of administration. Medication containers must be stored in the health office and students may consume medicine only in the health office." This includes acetaminophen, cough drops, or any other nonprescription, over-the-counter medication.
