  • EIGHTH GRADE PROMOTION PICTURES

    Eighth grade promotion pictures will be taken Friday, January 17. A total of four poses will be taken for promotion pictures. Two will be taken wearing their promotion gown, and two will be taken wearing dress clothers with a traditional background.

    Please understand that the school's appropriate dress code as described in the 2019-2020 Bensenville School District 2 Student Handbook, Page 26, will apply. 

    Remember that good grooming is very important to ensure a good picture. Please have your hair combed as you want it when you come to the camera to be photographed. 

    In a few weeks, proofs will be sent to you with package prices and instructions for ordering them. Please pay special attention to the deadline date for the return of your order and proofs.

  • EIGHTH GRADE ORIENTATION AT FENTON

    Fenton High School will be holding this year’s eighth-grade orientation program on Thursday, January 23, from 6:30-8 p.m.

    The program will include an introduction, information session, and student speaker in the auditorium, with a separate location and the same program for Spanish speakers. Students and families will then be directed to the fieldhouse, where counselors and division leaders will be available to answer questions. Also in the fieldhouse will be an Electives Fair, which is a chance for students to learn more about the various programs and offerings in the elective areas that are available to Fenton’s freshmen.

    The evening will not include athletics and activities as it has in years past. Instead, a separate Athletics and Activities Fair will be held from 6:30-9 p.m. Monday, April 20, to give organizations more time to develop and provide more detailed information on any summer programming and practices.
