Fifth Grade Parents - We would love some help organizing a reception and a send-off for Fifth Grade Promotion. If you are able to help, please contact laurapew@illinois.edu.

Families can learn about our Summer 2023 programs by visiting the summer website (also linked as a "quick link" on Unit 4's main webpage).  The summer website contains program information and interest applications for students.

The 2023 Illinois 5 Essentials Parent Survey opened on Jan. 24, 2023. The survey window will close on March 31, 2023. More information can be found here. Please share your feedback here:  http://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/survey/parent/

We will meet soon to organize class lists for 23-24. Balanced classrooms are composed of diversity in gender, socio-economic status, academic achievement, as well as personalities. Our school team will use information about your student as well as others to support everyone at Robeson. I invite you to provide me with input about your child’s placement as we prepare class assignments for the upcoming school year. In doing so, please observe the following procedure: 

Parent input for a specific learning environment (not for a specific teacher) is submitted in writing to the principal no later than March 24th, 2023.  

  • Please send a separate email for each child. 

  • The email should describe the environment in which your student will be successful and why.

  • Please compose an email addressed to pitcheje@u4sd.org, subject line “Student Environment Request”, followed by your student’s name.

  • Requests for specific teachers should not be submitted, nor will they be granted.

PTA Newsletter

Please encourage your student to be a part of the Young Author Contest (see linked document). Deadline March 31.
