MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT

Welcome to the 2026–2027 school year!

Each new school year offers a valuable opportunity to grow, learn, and build on past successes. I look forward to working with our students, staff, families, and community to ensure District 89 empowers every child to achieve excellence and reach their full potential.

At District 89, we believe every student deserves an outstanding education, and every family deserves a school system they can trust. This belief guides our daily work. We focus on advancing student achievement, creating safe and welcoming schools, investing in staff, and strengthening communication with families to do what is best for children.

This year, we will continue to strengthen teaching and learning across the district and create opportunities that prepare students to excel in school and beyond. We will celebrate growth, learn from challenges, and remain focused on equipping every student with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed. Our progress depends on strong partnerships among our schools, families, the Board of Education, and the community. Please stay engaged, attend school events, ask questions, and recognize the accomplishments throughout our district. Our students benefit from our collaboration.

I am proud of our dedicated teachers, support staff, administrators, and teams who serve our students each day. As we begin this school year, I encourage everyone to approach the opportunities ahead with optimism and purpose. By working together, we will build on our strengths, support one another, and create experiences that help every student succeed.

Thank you for your continued partnership and the trust you place in our schools. I look forward to a year of learning, growth, and celebration. Have a safe, successful, and memorable 2026–2027 school year!

Warmly,

Dr. Algeanna Griffin
