August is Back to School Time!
Aug 01, 2024
It's already August which means it is Back to School Time! Finishing touches are being made at all schools and classroom rosters and bus route are being finalized. The first day of school for students is Wednesday, August 21st. If you haven't registered your children for the upcoming school year, please do so immediately. We cannot guarantee bus transportation (for students that qualify) if students are not registered. Visit our website to register your children: Student Registration
Our website has a wealth of information for the new school year including:
2024-2025 School Calendar
School Supply Lists
Open House Schedule
Please notice that most of the School Open Houses take place on August 19th or August 20th before school begins. If you have questions or need help with registration, school secretaries are back in the buildings.
New this year: Bus Passes will be uploaded to your Aspen Family Portal Account during the week of August 12th. Passes will not be mailed. Students do not need to have a printed copy of the pass to board the buses.
Important information is also shared throughout the year on our social media platforms Facebook (Joliet Public Schools District 86 English and Joliet Public Schools District 86 Spanish) and X/Twitter (@JolietSD86 and @Joliet86Spanish). Our schools also have individual X/Twitter accounts.
I look forward to a wonderful 2024-2025 school year filled with learning, growth, laughter, and success!
