Community Nights
District 88 invites all stakeholders to celebrate the start of the 2021-22 school year by attending the district’s fifth annual Community Nights – a time for fun, food and District 88 pride! Addison Trail’s Blue and White Community Night and Willowbrook’s Silver and Blue Community Night will take place on Aug. 20 at the football stadiums, and the evening will feature a showcase of the schools’ athletic teams and extracurricular activities. See all the details below in the newsletter!
Thank you for your continued support of District 88. We’re excited to focus on the future as we get ready for the 2021-22 school year and continue to collaborate with all of our stakeholders to accomplish our mission of working for the continuous improvement of student achievement.
