Classes throughout District 58 celebrated Valentines Day in a variety of ways, including sharing cards and treats with their classmates, completing special craft projects, performing concerts for their families, and playing fun games.
At Herrick Middle School, students created and delivered special three-dimensional cards to the participants in the Southeast Association for Special Education in DuPage program, which is housed at Herrick.
The card delivery is an annual tradition, but this year students throughout Herrick also put together hundreds of cards and gifts – “Cards for Carlos” – specifically for one of the SASED students who is ill and in the hospital.
Other activities in District 58 included:
- A friendship-themed concert performed by Kingsley’s kindergarten through second-grade students
- A Valentine’s Day dance at El Sierra
- A special first-grade game of heart bingo at Henry Puffer
