At this time, some Doctor's offices are not seeing patients for physicals and immunizations.

All insurance is accepted including Medicaid plans. To be seen, they require an up to date shot record to be brought in.

Also, Dental safari will be coming to Grant and Illini in January 2021. I encourage all students to use this service, and as a reminder, all students in Kindergarten, 2nd, and 6th grade require a dental exam due May 15th of that school year.
These dental exams must be done within 18 months of the due date, so if your student will be entering one of these grades this coming year (2020) or the following school year (2021), this date will cover the requirement.

Illini Parents:
For some of you at this point it is like the end of winter break. The time together was nice, but let’s face it, it can be exhausting. The honeymoon is over and some of you might be struggling a bit. Remember we are here. Need a call from the principal to discuss a lack of wanting to attempt to try the work? Need a video chat with me or Ms Davis to talk about concerns you or your students are having? Maybe your student has a birthday and you’d like us to call or come by and sing Happy Birthday to your child in the driveway(a good 6 ft away promise). Maybe your child has been doing really great or worked hard on a difficult task and you would like a certificate of recognition sent from us in the mail.
Just know we are here to support you. We know your job as a parent was hard enough before this pandemic, and we understand the need for support now. I am just an email away. Feel free to reach out.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Lasley

Illini Elementary could use donated clothes for the nurses offices. Let’s face it, accidents happen. We are in real need of pants. Particularly sizes 5-10/12. It’s that time of year we begin to transition to warmer clothes, so as you are going through your children’s closets, if you need to find a new home for the clothes they have out grown, we would love to take them. Just send them to the office in a bag marked donated items for the nurses office. Thank you in advance.
