Dear Parents,
We now begin the push for graduation and the end of the school year. I want to encourage students to remain focused and finish the 2022-2023 school year strong!
One way to accomplish finishing the year strong is by improving our school’s attendance. Parents, we need your help in ensuring that our students are at school on time and remain in school the full day. If everyone does their part, it will help accomplish Venice CUSD#3 commitment to high expectations and excellence.

Dear Parents,
We are getting prepared for the Illinois Assessment of Readiness Standardized Test, which will be taking place Tuesday, March 21, 2023 through Friday, March 31, 2023. By working together, we can make sure that your child’s test experience is positive and successful. Here are some suggestions that you can do to help your child succeeds: • Make sure your child gets a good night’s rest. • Have your child eat a healthy breakfast at home or in the cafeteria at school. • Make sure that your child arrives to school on time. • Gently encourage your child to do their best. Thanks for your help!

Our Spring Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held Thursday, March 16, 2023 from 4:00pm – 8:00pm, and Friday March 17, 2023 from 8:30am-12:00pm pm.
