Check out the list of special days we will have at Altamont Grade School the week of March 3 - March 7, 2025!
Altamont CUSD #10 will join the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) in the thirteenth statewide survey of school climate and learning conditions. The survey provides a unique opportunity for students, teachers and parents to have a voice in improving their schools. The survey opens February 18, 2025 and concludes on March 28, 2025. Students and teachers will be invited to participate in a 30-minute research-based survey to help identify strengths and weaknesses in their school’s learning environment. The parent survey supplement will also be administered during the same survey window. These surveys will serve as an opportunity for schools to reflect on progress since the last statewide implementation. Parents will be communicated the survey link through the platforms they have set up for the school to use.
