Do you have or know a child between the ages of 3-5? Salt Creek School District 48 conducts a free developmental screening of preschool-aged children (ages 2.5 to 5, not yet enrolled in kindergarten). This screening is open to all preschool-aged students who live in District 48 boundaries. Screenings are conducted at Salt Creek Primary School, 980 S. Riverside Dr. in Elmhurst.

Happy White Cane Day! The students at Salt Creek learned about the purpose and structure of canes, cane etiquette, and visual impairments. We're so lucky to have students with visual impairments in our building to educate us on this important topic.

Say BOO to the FLU!
Protect yourself. Protect others.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends to get your flu vaccine before the end of October. So, please get the vaccine for your child and yourself.
Busy Friday night at AMS! Fisherman Club and Willowbrook’s Friday Night Connect kept over 75 students here. What a great start to the weekend!
