NOMINATING PETITIONS FOR BOARD OF EDUCATION AVAILABLE

Congratulations to Byron High School for receiving the US News & World Report’s Silver Badge Award.

Mary Morgan elementary school has achieved the Gold Circle of Quality designation, the highest award issued through the state’s early learning program rating system known as ExceleRate Illinois.

The Byron School District would like to thank Byron Bank for their generous donation of $2,000 to help fund tents throughout the school campus. The tents are an additional safety precaution aimed at providing alternative areas for our students staff to conduct class or eat lunch during the school day. Pictured (left to right) is Mr. Christian Kerr, Byron CUSD Business Manager, Mr. Zack Ettelbrick, Byron Principal, and Mr. Sean Considine, Byron Bank.

Please see the tentative reopening plan for the Byron Community Unit School District.

Please be aware that we will be working on Maple Drive for the next couple of weeks. If you use Maple Drive to access the fields behind our buildings, please use the driveway on the north side of the high school, immediately south of the railroad tracks.
