June 17 launch for Community Speaker Series from D214 and LWV

A community speaker series focusing on anti-racism, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion will be launched this summer - with the first event scheduled for 6 p.m. on Thursday, June 17 - through a partnership between D214 and the League of Women Voters-Arlington Heights-Mount Prospect-Buffalo Grove Areas.

The initial event is virtual and will focus on bystander intervention training in response to a rise in anti-Asian harassment. This session – led by Advancing Justice Chicago, in partnership with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) Chicago and Hollaback! – will help people identify hate incidents and learn to take action safely and effectively. Participants may register at bit.ly/LWVAHBystander.

Fall Registration

High School District 214 uses an online fall registration and fee payment process for student registration. Please plan to allow at least 30 minutes to complete the registration. Online fall registration will begin at 8 a.m. (CST) on Monday, June 7, 2021.

In order to log in, parents and guardians will need the student ID number, student's home school name, household phone number and student's date of birth. Anyone who does not have access to a computer or prefers to pay using cash, check or money order may go to their home school to complete the registration process. For more, information and to register, please go to our Fall Registration page.

Block Schedule Pilot

Having adopted block schedules during the 2020-2021 school year to better accommodate student and staff needs during hybrid learning, District 214 will now implement block schedules for all of its comprehensive high schools as a pilot program.

District 214 reached this decision after receiving positive feedback about this year’s schedule from students, parents and teachers and additional positive feedback by way of parent surveys. Additional details of the schedule and several potential advantages identified by District 214 may be found here.

After the pilot concludes, we will review data and once again survey students, parents and staff regarding future years’ schedules.
