Somonauk Middle School

VETERANS DAY 2020 Somonauk Community Unit School District #432 would like to honor our United States Veterans during the week of Veterans Day. While our annual school assembly cannot take place in person this year, we would still like to acknowledge our local veterans who selflessly served our country. Please help us pay tribute to them in a virtual ceremony by sending a digital photo or two, possibly “then” and “now”, of a veteran that you know, as well as branch served, time period, and any special recognition (i.e., Lt. John Patrick, Army, 1965-1969, 2 Bronze Stars) Somonauk School District values the service of our Veterans, we look forward to honoring them and their families this year. Please send the pictures to nesse@somonauk.net by November 2, 2020, in order to be included in the presentation.

UPDATE on Somonauk School LUNCH On Monday, August 31, 2020 the USDA, U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that they will extend FREE lunch to all children in the fall months during the COVID -19 pandemic. Please fill out this form if you would like a lunch delivered for your child(ren). https://forms.gle/Um93fPS4wYtDhuie9 **Due to Labor Day holiday, lunch deliveries will be on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week.

We will be providing multiple opportunities for parents of students to receive educational support materials from the school: Tuesday: We will have a drive-thru pick up at the circle drive on Market Street (Rt. 34) at the HS gym. This will take place from 5:00 pm-7:00 pm. Parents will drive up and give the names of their child/children and we will bring the materials to your car. Wednesday: Buses will deliver materials to the homes of those who did not pick up on Tuesday evening. Due to the nature of what is being delivered, we will not leave items on a doorstep. The delivery will take place between the hours of 11:00 am and 3:00 pm. We will knock and wait for an answer and if no one is home we will return the materials to the school. We will also have a second pick up Wednesday evening from 4-6 for any leftover materials. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the school. This does not apply to families who chose option #2 and have already received a Chromebook. We are looking forward to seeing our kids starting this Thursday, August 27.
