Middle school course elective options for next school year were sent to your students in an email. Please have your student(s) complete this form so that we know which electives they want. Only Illini Central email addresses will work when completing this form. While we try our best to enroll students in their first elective choices, that is not always possible with scheduling. If you have any questions, please reach out to the school counselor, Andrea Arms at aarms@illinicentral.org.

As you probably know, a solar eclipse will occur on Monday, April 8th, 2024. Students and staff at Illini Central Schools will remain indoors during this time, as will all recesses and PE classes. Classroom teachers may choose to watch the live eclipse broadcast online, but out of caution, we will not allow students to go outside to watch it directly. By the time school is dismissed at 3:00 pm, we will be past the eclipse's peak, and we will encourage students to avoid looking directly into the sun as they leave for the day. If a guardian wants to pick up their child early from school to watch the eclipse, please contact the office and follow attendance procedures.
