Visit Open Enrollment Schools
Posted by Terri McHugh on Thursday, January 27th, 2011 at 12:02 pm
School District 54 invited parents to its 12th Open Enrollment Fair on Wednesday, Jan. 26, 2011. The fair provided parents with information on ten schools in our district: Blackwell, Campanelli, Dirksen, Dooley, Enders-Salk, Hanover Highlands, Hoover, Lincoln Prairie, Link and MacArthur. Each of these schools houses a unique program and we anticipate a few openings at each site next year.
If you missed the fair, or even if you attended, you are still invited to visit the schools and view the programs in action. People interested in visiting a school and picking up an application can call each school for more information:
