Dear Kaneland Families,
Thank you for all of your support and flexibility throughout this school year, especially during our transition to remote learning the past three weeks. Without your support at home, we couldn't have made it happen. Let's close out this year by putting the computers and schedules away for a while so you can enjoy your time together. Soon enough we will see you all again on January 4, 2021! B-Day students, we will see you in person on January 5th. We wish you a wonderful holiday season!
RTI Interventions
The final day for all RtI Interventions, both reading and math, will be Friday, Dec. 18 until we return to school in January. New schedules will be communicated when we return to school.

Kaneland District Email
This message was shared by the Kaneland Administration on Wednesday, 12/16. We have highlighted important topics that pertain to the elementary level.
To assist in a successful return to school in January, please continue to work diligently to practice the W’s - Wear a mask, Watch your distance, and Wash your hands - you are making a difference.
Our plan is to return to in-person learning at school on January 4, 2021 (A day), with the hybrid model (A and B days) that we started the school year. Tuesday, January 5, 2021, will be a B day. Full Remote Students begin on January 4th.
When we return to school in January, and what was shared with the Board of Education on Monday night, there has been a change made to the learning structure for Wednesdays starting in January. Please see the attached information outlining those changes by grade span.
K-5 Wednesday Hybrid and Family/Medical Choice Remote Structure
In addition to the new Wednesday Schedule, please also see the Hybrid Exploratory Calendar, as well as the Wednesday Attendance Outline for elementary students.

Self-Certification Reminder
As Kaneland CUSD #302 transitions back to in-person learning starting Monday, January 4, all staff and students will need to use the Certification Tool for each day they enter our buildings. Please see the following directions:
Students (Parents) Planning to return to Hybrid Learning in January: Please use the student self-certification tool each day beginning Monday, January 4, 2021. If a student either tests positive or is identified as a close contact with a person that tests positive for the coronavirus, please keep the student home and send an email to your school nurse.
Family Choice/Medical students should continue to sign in for attendance following their current protocols for this school year.
To minimize the spread of the disease, Kaneland Schools are taking the following steps:
Continuing self-certification of staff and students
We recommend that everyone continue to monitor their health and stay at home if they develop symptoms. Symptomatic persons should contact their health care provider to determine the plan of care and discuss testing. Anyone who develops severe symptoms should seek medical care immediately
Kaneland schools continue to follow protocols for disinfection (routine and high-touch cleaning) reinforcing the importance of wearing face masks at all times, encouraging social distancing, and providing an opportunity for hand washing or hand sanitizing multiple times a day.
Kaneland Cares Closet
The Cares Closet will stop taking orders today, Friday 12/18, and will not be available over Winter Break. We will start accepting orders again after the holidays on January 4th. Visit Kaneland.org for more information.
