District #37 2008-2009 Registration Info
Registration for the 2008-2009 school year will
be held at Glenview Middle School, July 30th and 31st.
As part of the registration
Illinois Code requires that school
districts admit only students who are legal residents of the
district. Therefore, to comply with state law, East Moline
District 37 will be addressing the issue of proof of residency
annually starting with registration for the 2008-2009 school
year.
We will be requiring all families
to re-establish or prove residency beginning with general
registration on July 30 and 31, 2008. Please be prepared to
present the following documents in order to establish residency
in District 37 neighborhoods when a student is registered for
classes.

A “Pat on the Back”
to the EMSD and the Community!

Each
year the Illinois State Board of Education recognizes
Spotlight Schools—high poverty schools where high
academic performance is closing the "achievement gap.”
Spotlight Schools exhibit achievements that are contrary
to the conventional wisdom that test scores will reflect
demographics despite local efforts.
East Moline
School District 37 is pleased to announce that in 2007
ALL its schools were recognized as Spotlight
Schools! The accomplishment is rare among Illinois
schools. Only three other multi-building districts in
the state achieved the same recognition!
|
|
The criteria for
selecting these schools are rigorous. All schools must
be making Adequate Yearly Progress. At least half the
students are from low-income families and at least 60%
must be passing the state achievement tests in reading
and mathematics. The Spotlight Schools demonstrate that
low-income students and schools with limited resources
can show impressive academic performance. These schools
know how to help students succeed!
Kudos to EMSD staff, parents,
and, of course, students!
