It was so nice to see you all at Miniature School.  This is one of my favorite evenings at Roycemore where you meet our fabulous faculty and hear about our challenging differentiated curriculum, The Leader in Me Program, our Centennial Year, plus all the enrichment activities that we offer.

Please remember there is NO school tomorrow, Monday, September 14 in honor of the Jewish Holiday Rosh Hashanah.  EDP Camp is running for those of you who preregistered.  We will see you all on Tuesday.  We are also running EDP Camp on Wednesday, September 23 in honor of the Jewish holiday, Yom Kippur.  We are still taking reservations for camp for that day.

ROYCEMORE IN THE NEWS "A world-class learning environment"  Those were the words used in a Chicago Tribune article this week to describe Roycemore.  Check out the full article below and please share with any and all who might be interested!
