Where will the road take you this summer? Whether you're traveling around the world, across the country, or to your local parks and pools, don't forget your D63 globe.

Our Board of Education members already have their globes and they're ready to go! Your globe came home with your student at the end of the school year. This summer, snap a photo of your student with the globe and email it to media@emsd63.org. Tell us where you are, who you are, and whether or not we should use your child's full name -- and you may see your summer adventures on our Facebook or Twitter pages!

As a reminder, all of these instructions are on the back of the globe. Bon voyage!

Ann Bongiorno, 3rd/4th Grade Teacher, was delighted to learn that her name had been drawn from a pile of “Successory” forms to receive a special gift honoring her contribution to student success at Mark Twain. Each Successory form thanked a particular teacher or education professional for helping that student “become a success.”

Jainam thanked Ms. Bongiorno for helping him "present like a professional presenter. Before, I used to read from the screen and pause between. Now, I am an expert at pausing at the right time and memorizing my part of the project!" Principal Lewis Roberts added his congratulations.
