Attention South Holland School District 150
Parents and Guardians,

There has been a change to our traditional summer school services for academic support for children.  We will NOT host an extended year program this summer.  The district has scheduled asbestos removal, this summer, in several of our classrooms where we normally host extended day.  We also understand the importance of keeping children engaged and involved in positive activities.  Therefore, we have provided a list of summer program offerings in the Village of South Holland and/or neighboring communities.  South Suburban College is also offering a baseball camp and basketball camp (information is included in the link below).

Congratulations to Mrs. Pearson . . .
