District 81 Teachers take the Polar Plunge!!

February 23, 2013

District 81 teachers and staff continue to inspire and amaze me. Today they demonstrated their compassion and commitment to the Special Olympics. Northwestern University hosted  “Freezing for a Reason” in support of the Special Olympics. Several teachers from District 81 formed a team and raised over $3,600.00 to support the cause. Raising money was the easy part. The hard part came today when they had to plunge into the icy waters of Lake Michigan!

I could not have been more proud or honored to be part of their cheering section. These are remarkable people and the children of Schiller Park District 81 are truly blessed to have them in their lives.
