The mission of Community Unit School District 95 is to inspire all
students to be passionate, continuous learners and to prepare
them with the skills to achieve their goals and flourish as responsible, caring citizens in a global community.
PARCC Tests
All of our Seth Paine third, fourth and fifth grade students will participate in the PARCC Testing during the weeks of March 2-6 and
March 9-13. We appreciate your cooperation in making sure your
child is in school on those days unless they are ill. Please do not
schedule doctor or dentist appointments on these days. ALL students
are required to take these tests, so if a student is absent they will need
to make them up upon their return. We encourage parents to make sure their
child gets plenty of rest during this week and that they eat breakfast each day as
well. Thank you all for your cooperation.

New Drop Off Procedures when Inside for Morning Recess
To assist with congestion in the lot, we are moving the AM drop-off location
from door 5 to door 9, which is the last door before the end of the building. If
you normally drop off in the morning, this is very close to the playground
drop-off location. Please remember, that we do not allow personal vehicles in
our Bus Circle.
Communication Changes—Please notify the school office if you change your phone numbers, address, or email address. Updated information is necessary for us to stay in touch with you and to keep
you informed about your student and what is happening at Seth Paine.
5 Essentials Survey—This is your opportunity to provide reflective feedback on how your child’s
school is doing. We encourage you to participate in this survey and help improve District 95 schools
for our children. We need at least 20% of our parents to complete this survey. Please look for the
email request and take a few minutes to provide some feedback to the school and District on how we
are doing here at Seth Paine.
