Parents,
We have received notification this morning of a staff member at the Middle School that has tested Positive for COVID 19. After contact tracing in cooperation with the Health Department we have 6 other "Close Contacts" that are also teachers....NO STUDENTS!!! However, with this many staff out and a need to go through all IDPH protocol and steps for buildings, we cannot keep this building open at this time. Starting TOMORROW WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4th THRU WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18th ALL MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL BE ON REMOTE LEARNING ONLY.
Mrs. McGowan and Mrs. Bell will get out an announcement on the Middle School page as to times, schedules and vital information about the next two weeks. Please look for that message or contact the Middle School office after 8 a.m. tomorrow.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS ONLY FOR THE MIDDLE SCHOOL! The rest of the buildings WILL be in session. East Side, West Side and the High School will continue with the schedule they currently have been running.
Please contact the offices tomorrow if you have questions. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Harrisburg Family,
During this CRAZY time, we seem to always focus on the bad. Today, I would like to bring something I consider not only positive, but a testament to what we are about in Unit # 3. Many will read this as something that is not "a big deal", however, I consider this a true picture of what "WE DO" here at unit # 3.
I want to publicly thank Mrs. Byas who exhibited something today that our entire staff practice daily. I just feel this gesture small or large in your mind, speaks volumes to what I see daily in our district.
Mike.
Marsha,
I got an anonymous call today..... They wanted me to know that they saw a little girl who comes to school every day and her hair is a mess. Today you pulled her aside so that when she got her picture done her hair would look pretty. We get so caught up in the minutiae of our jobs we sometimes forget about CHILDREN!
I just want you to know how appreciative I am that you went above and beyond for that little girl. Some would say that is a small gesture....I believe that little girl will remember that FOREVER. I would like you to make sure when those pictures come in ...if that little girl does not have the means to buy those pictures, I will purchase them. I WANT THAT LITTLE GIRL TO HAVE THE "CADILLAC" PICTURE PACKAGE!
Thank you again for that gesture and all you do! I wish someone would have captured a picture of that, as I would make that the cover page of our district website! THAT IS WHAT WE SHOULD ALL BE ABOUT...Thank you Marsha!
