As you probably know, a solar eclipse will occur on Monday, April 8th, 2024. Students and staff at Illini Central Schools will remain indoors during this time, as will all recesses and PE classes. Classroom teachers may choose to watch the live eclipse broadcast online, but out of caution, we will not allow students to go outside to watch it directly. By the time school is dismissed at 3:00 pm, we will be past the eclipse's peak, and we will encourage students to avoid looking directly into the sun as they leave for the day.
If a guardian wants to pick up their child early from school to watch the eclipse, please contact the office and follow attendance procedures.
It's been a busy week on the construction site! Roof and walls on the Fitness Barn, floors in the shop, and electrical conduit to the building!

Correction from the last message with an incorrect date...this will take place tomorrow March 14th. The date in the previous post was wrong.
On Monday, a tragic bus accident took place involving staff and students from the Rushville-Industry school district. Our hearts go out to the families of the victims of this horrible tragedy and we want to help.
Tomorrow, Thursday March 13th, we will be hosting a Hat Day at Illini Central to raise money for the families of those involved in the accident. Students can donate $1 or more to wear a hat to school that day. All of the proceeds will be given to the families of the victims.
Middle School and High School students can make their donations in the gym before school and receive a sticker to show they have made a donation.
Grade School teachers will collect the money from their students in the morning.
Thank you for your support.
Next week...March 18th through the 22nd will be ICGS Spirit Week!
