Dear District 19 Staff and Families,
Yesterday, February 4 the judge granted a temporary restraining order (TRO) on lawsuit, Austin v. Pritzker that could impact our current COVID-19 mitigation efforts. Today we are reviewing the ruling document with our legal teams.
We anticipate sending out another update tomorrow, Sunday, February 6 and Monday, February 7.
Thank you for your patience as we work through what this ruling means for our school community.
Sincerely,
Tiffany Elswick
District 19 Superintendent

MIDDLE SCHOOL CAREER DISCOVERY SERIES
The MCC Career Discovery Series for middle school students will be returning on February 22-24, 2022. This virtual event allows middle school students to explore career interests.
The activity guides students in the exploration of career interests, future earning potential, and helps to narrow down the career clusters they will investigate at the Career Discovery Series event.
Then, during February 22-24 from 6:00-7:15 pm, four career clusters will be highlighted each evening. Students will participate in breakout rooms and meet virtually with local business professionals and MCC instructors during a deep-dive exploration of each career area. Families can participate in as many evenings as they like, interacting with these professionals and beginning to think about the next steps in their educational journey.

AHMS: In 6th grade science class, Mr. Stewart gave an informative presentation on land resources. He also had a chance to speak to the students about various career options within our Mchenry county conservation district.
Congratulations to our Middle School wrestling team. Last night the guys did a great job for their first meet winning 7 matches wrestling against Genoa-Kingston, Oregon & Rochelle. The Giants were led by Ulysses Johnson who went 3-0 and won every one of his matches by a pin, Caleb Linneman went 2-1 and won both of his by pin too. Camden Spiniolas and Jack Stewart had to wrestle some pretty though kids but both ended up getting a win. Kyle Linneman, Logan Klein and Georg Loftis-Longfield all had hard fought matches and did a great job. Proud of you guys!!
Let's Celebrate CTE Month!
Career and Technical Education Month is a public awareness campaign that takes place each February to celebrate the value of CTE.
What is CTE?
Career and technical education, or CTE, is education that directly prepares students for high-wage, high-demand careers. CTE covers many different fields, including health care, information technology, advanced manufacturing, hospitality and management and many more. Through CTE, learners gain real-world skills that prepare them to succeed in college and a career that they are passionate about.
Share with the us how much you love CTE in the comments below!
