Focus on Families is a free prenatal to 36 months program that is open to District 142 families.

As you know, the Board of Education is engaged in the process of selecting the district’s next superintendent. The Board has enlisted the services of IASB’s (Illinois Association of School Board) Executive Search team to assist with this important work. The Board will interview a slate of candidates on Monday, May 17 and Tuesday, May 18, and from those interviews, the candidate pool will be narrowed to two or three semifinalists.

Thank you for your support throughout this entire school year. The students and staff have done a remarkable job and we could not be prouder of their efforts. District 142 is committed to providing ongoing learning opportunities for students during the summer. We want students to have every chance to continue engaging in learning with the support of District 142 staff.

As part of Forest Ridge School District 142's annual lawn care program, a contractor will be applying weed control chemicals to the turf areas at each school on Saturday, April 24, 2021.

Forest Ridge School District 142 fifth and eighth grade students will take the Illinois Science Assessment (ISA) starting April 21. The ISA aligns with our Illinois Learning Standards in Science. This assessment helps students understand how well they are performing in their understanding of the Science standards.

When students return from their well deserved spring break on Wednesday, April 7, we welcome our Grade 1-8 In-Person Hybrid A students back while Ridge continues with an AM/PM schedule.
