Dear Still News Subscribers:
Just one more reminder regarding our events for parents and students on Wednesday, 8/13/2008...
9:30 A.M.-10:30 A.M.
This is the time for our New(to District 204) Student Orientation. This program is designed for students and parents who did not attend a District 204 elementary or middle school last year.
12:00 P.M.-2:00 P.M.
This is the time for our 6th Grade Open House. There will be no formal presentations given at this time. However, 6th grade students will received locker and team assignments. Students and parents will have an opportunity to tour the building, practice locker combinations, and place belongings into lockers. PE locks will be available for purchase at this time (Cost = $3.50 with checks payable to Still MS), and parents will also have the opportunity to purchase the required PE shirt for $10.00 with checks payable to the Still PTSA. The PTSA will also be available with membership and volunteer information.
In addition, during this time, School Supply Kits can be picked up for 6th, 7th, & 8th grade students in the "D" House area. For those of you who are not familiar with where the "D" House is located, there will be signs to direct you.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Nonnemacher Principal Still Middle School 630/375-3900

When I am looking at the school supply lists for other MS, why are the cost of gym locks and gym shirts different based on your school. The cost of the PE shirt at Crone is $8.15 but $15.00 at Granger and $10.00 at Scullen. The PE lock ranges from $3.50 up to $5.00. I never understood the inconsistencies between the school when they are all in the same district.

The gym shirts, I am pretty sure are exactly identical across all MS's (so difference in shirts is not the reason). Different schools must treat it as a student fee, to fund something. It would be nice if they explained this.
I believe you can buy these on your own, too. Chicago T Shirt Authority I think has them (they moved from 75th and 59 shopping center to New York and 59 next to the Cub Foods.)

I don't think Chicago T Shirt sells them anymore, at least not for Still. The shirt was changed the year my daughter started. I am pretty sure you have to purchase the gym shirt at the school now.

I never understood the inconsistencies between the school when they are all in the same district. I was told that the differences in cost are because of some schools charge a bit more and send the difference to the PTSA. The shirt may cost only $8.00, for example. Scullen takes $2.00 and puts it toward PTSA. I believe the same goes for PE locks.
