Dear Addams Community:

Help us honor veterans! Addams Junior High wants to recognize all the veterans who have contributed to help make our country great! We are creating a Honor Wall to showcase the Addams Veterans. If you have a veteran in your family or a friend that you would like to honor, please email the pictures to your child’s social studies teacher or have your child bring in a copy by November 12th so we can make sure they are included.

We are also calling for any student who would like to donate unwanted candy to bring it to school. We are working with a local group to donate candy to the military overseas. Please have students drop off the candy in the main office between now and November 12th.  

We appreciate your support!

Regards,
 
Chris Bingen       Principal

District 54 Virtual Backpack
 
District 54 shares information about community events with our students and families through our Virtual Backpack.  We know that parents are interested in extracurricular activities. At the same time, we don’t want the homework, letters from the teachers, school news and other important district information to get lost among the countless other pieces of paper in our students’ backpacks.  Please click here for additional information.
