We are so excited to share that we’ve had a wonderful first week of school! Your children have been busy getting to know their teachers, meeting new friends, and beginning to build the routines that will carry us through a successful year.

On early release days, students are dismissed at 1:15 pm. These are our early release days for FY25-26.

Waukegan High School’s Fine Arts Department will debut its production of "Mamma Mia!" musical February 19-21 in the Trapp Auditorium of the Waukegan High School-Brookside Campus. Performances will be held at 7 p.m. on Thursday, February 19, Friday, February 20, and Saturday, February 21.

We are writing to follow up regarding the student-led activity that occurred on Friday at Waukegan High School, as well as related activity at at least one of our middle schools. We want to re-emphasize that the events on Friday were student-led. We understand that students chose to express themselves, and that day has now passed. At this time, we want to be very clear that any additional protests, walkouts, or similar activities that students may be discussing or planning are not sanctioned, approved, or supported by any school or by the district. Our expectation moving forward is that the school day remains focused on learning, safety, and normal operations.
