District 202 will share resources for promoting family well-being on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, at Heritage Grove Middle School, 12425 S. Van Dyke Road, Plainfield.

District 202's Plainfield Parent Community Network will present this free program, “Building a Brighter Tomorrow Together: Resources You Need to Know About for Promoting Your Family’s Mental, Emotional, and Physical Well-being."

Doors will open at 6 p.m. with a resource fair and the program will start at 6:30 p.m. in the school cafeteria.

Plainfield North High School men’s and women’s cross country head coach Andrew Derks was named the Illinois High School Association Coach of the Year for the 2023-24 season.

“It makes me feel proud to be recognized, but I truly see this as an award for our entire coaching staff,” Derks said.

“Coach Derks deserves this honor based on not only the success of the program, but also the dedication and commitment he has towards the student athletes,” PNHS Athletic Director Ron Lear said.

Each fall, the National Federation of High Schools (NFHS), which is the national affiliate of the IHSA, conducts a coach of the year program for all NFHS-sanctioned sports.

District 202 high school juniors once again have the chance to broaden their academic horizons with the help of a special grant to help pay for a summer extended learning experience.

The Plainfield Foundation for Excellence will award multiple Horizon Grants totaling up to $5,000 to current high school juniors from District 202’s four high schools and Plainfield Academy, the district’s alternative high school. (Actual grant amounts will depend on applications and available revenue, but the total of all grants awarded will not exceed $5,000).

Grants are to be used for expenses related to a summer enrichment experience. This includes but is not limited to expenses such as: registration, travel, food/lodging, learning materials and supplies.
