Visit the "Rooms" website on the Illini Central homepage under "Quick Links" to learn more about rooms and how to use the Illini Central app.
(https://www.illinicentral.org/page/illinirooms)
Also, the Android app has been updated to fix the glitches, so make sure you're always using the most updated version. If you have questions or cannot find the answer on the website, please email jdurbin@illinicentral.org.

Demolition of the modulars has begun!

As we continue to do our best to communicate with students and families, we are trying to ensure all parents connect using Rooms and the Illini Central app. Teachers and staff will no longer use Class Dojo or Remind to communicate with students and parents.
Parents, you should have received an email with the "magic code" to create accounts and add students. Go to id.edurooms.com and enter the magic code. Do not use an Illini Central account to create parent accounts.
Students, you can go to id.edurooms.com, "Log in with Google," and use your Illini Central Google account.
Once you have created your account, you can use the website or download the Illini Central app. If you don't see the "Rooms" toggle on the app, you may want to update or reinstall the app. Pay attention to the pop-ups as you sign in because that is how you will receive notifications.
If you have difficulties or did not receive your code, please email jdurbin@illinicentral.org.

The IC Board of Education will hold its regular monthly meeting tonight at 7:00 pm at the Mason City Public Library. The Google Meet link is meet.google.com/dfr-btba-ahe

We are excited to start the 2023-2024 school year and look forward to having students in the building tomorrow! We have heard the need for streamlined communication from parents and families. In response, parents, guardians, and students will use the Illini Central app for district and school news, events, and more.
As part of the Illini Central app, parents and guardians can access “Rooms.” Rooms makes it easier for teachers and staff to communicate with one another through chat, much like Class Dojo did for the grade school in the past. Additionally, parents of middle and high school students will be able to view information from their students’ Google Classrooms and communicate with teachers. Rooms will replace Class Dojo and Remind; Rooms will be the platform staff uses to communicate with parents and students.
Later today, parents and guardians will receive an email and/or text message inviting them to join Rooms. Parents will receive a “magic code” for each student in this message. Parents must follow the instructions in the email to set up their account. Invitations will be sent based on information in Skyward, so we must keep this information up-to-date and accurate. If you have changes, please contact the building secretary.
While waiting for the invitations, parents can ensure they have the app downloaded on their phones. If you already have the app, you can wait for the invitation later today.
It is our hope that by using Rooms we make it easier for parents who have multiple children in the district to keep track of their students’ classroom news and activities. We look forward to a great year! See you at open house tonight.

Here is a link to the course change request form: https://forms.gle/hS9Eeq2NEuUPsETr5
Please fill out this form instead of emailing me. If you have already emailed me, I am not responding as you need to fill out this form. This will allow me to have all of the change requests in one spot so that I can work on trying to make your schedule changes efficiently.
As always, I will do my best to accommodate your requests but please know that depending on what hours classes are offered and how full those classes are, changes cannot always happen.
See you soon!
