CUSD #20 Evening Update:
The boiler at Parkview is still under construction; however, the grinding and welding is nearly complete. Replacement parts are in route and will hopefully be in hand by the end of the week. Parkview room temperatures today ranged from 52 to 60. Thank you for your patience and we will continue to update as we know more.
Best of luck to our Parkview 8th grade boys as they play against Robinson at Cumberland in the IESA Regionals.
Also, best of luck to our LHS Cheerleaders as they prepare to head to their state competition on Friday in Bloomington!
Parkview Parents - there will be a menu change for Friday, February 3, 2023. Parkview students will now have the option of a quesadilla or chicken burrito, small salad, corn, fruit and milk. The menu tomorrow will stay as is.

Have a great day!

Parkview Boiler Update:
A team of repairmen from DeBra-Kuempel have been working tirelessly over at Parkview Junior High School to repair the boiler. As you can see, they have their work cut out for them; however, they are getting the job done and done well! We want our students and staff warm but more than that, we want them safe.
So the public knows - plans have been in place to use Covid 3 funds to install a brand new HVAC system this summer at Parkview. Parts were not available last summer; therefore, the project was delayed until the summer of 2023.
Midday Update from CUSD #20!
The District Administration, LHS administration and staff, and Parkview administration and staff would like to give all parents and community members an update with the merging of Parkview and LHS.
So far this morning, all Parkview students and staff have gotten through lunch and periods 2, 3, and 4. The LHS freshmen and sophomores have eaten and the juniors and seniors will eat next. Parkview Junior High School cafeteria workers did amazing at preparing the junior high students lunches and the LHS cafeteria workers provided the breakfast and lunches for their students. We also want to thank the LHS cafeteria workers for providing our Parkview students with an amazing breakfast this morning. They will continue to do this for the duration of Parkview's stay at LHS.
The Parkview teachers and students are doing well and have embraced the transition with grace and empathy. The LHS students and staff have been supportive and helpful with the changes that have been made to their day as well. The Unit #20 families have come together to make a not-so-great situation into one we can only be proud of.
Even though we are still working through some hiccups, we wanted to update all parents/guardians/community members on the status of our students. We will update again at the end of the day with any announcements that need to be made for tomorrow.
Parkview Families-
If you are needing to reach Parkview Junior High School, please continue calling the Parkview phone number at 618-943-2327. LeighAnn will be able to be reached at that number.
Parkview Parents/Guardians:
Please remind your student to have a pencil/pen, paper, a book to read, and a highlighter (if possible) before coming to school this morning. Each student was encouraged to bring what they would use at school at Parkview home with them last night. Please remind them to bring these items to LHS for school this morning.
Students will go directly to the LHS auditorium when arriving at school this morning. Students will sit with their grade in designated areas. At that time, students will be given their schedule and where their classrooms are located. These classrooms will remain the same for each student for the duration of our stay at LHS.
Again, thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We appreciate it.
