Our schools are between 58 and 75 years old, and the district faces a number of challenges related to aging facilities. A facilities master plan completed last winter identified nearly $80 million in building needs related to accessibility, safety and security, maintenance and updates that support how students learn and what they need to be prepared for high school.
Building Tomorrow Together community engagement workshops will be held from 6 to 8 p.m., Mondays, Oct. 14 and 28, in the Northbrook Junior High School Large Gym, 1475 Maple Avenue in Northbrook.

Sixth-graders returned to class a little more at ease about junior high and with a few new friends after participating in Northbrook Junior High’s Outdoor Education program at Camp Timber Lee Sept. 25-27.
The experience is intended to help the students build community in a junior high where three elementary schools come together.
