ICYMI! Highlights from the Homecoming Parade:

Do you enjoy working with children? Consider becoming a substitute teacher. School districts across the state are facing a shortage of subs, and Geneva District 304 is no exception. Substitute teachers play a vital role in providing our students with the best possible learning experience when their regular teacher is absent. You can help support our students by applying to be a substitute teacher in Geneva District 304.

To help ease the sub shortage, the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) has lessened the requirements to obtain a substitute teacher’s license.

Superintendent Andy Barrett is planning opportunities to listen to the thoughts, ideas and perspectives of parents and the community at upcoming Listening Tour meetings. The objective will be to strengthen connections and foster two-way communication. He will be asking attendees questions such as “Why do you believe in Geneva304?”
