June has been all about preparing for the big move – packing and unpacking. It has been a tremendous job and the parent educators have really gone above and beyond to make sure that our new facility looks attractive and inviting to families. Here is a sampling of some before and after pictures. The giant pile of boxes is only a small portion of the actual number of boxes that we had to unpack into our new space. We have definitely mastered the art of making things fit!

On June 29, 2023, Governor Pritzker signed SB 2390 (now PA-103-0111) into law. It is effective immediately. The law provides an extension for the Short-Term substitute teacher application availability. The application is now available through June 30, 2028 rather than June 30, 2023. Once issued, the license is valid for five years. Educators who currently hold short-term substitute teaching licenses with an expiration date of June 30, 2023 can renew the license for a five-year period in their Educator Licensure Information System (ELIS) accounts by logging into their ELIS accounts on or after July 1, 2023 and clicking on the “Renewals” link in their Action Center. There is no fee for renewing a Short-Term substitute license. If you need any help, please email Mary Escamilla (mescamilla@roe47.org).
