School Time Schedule
Arrival/Departure Procedures
Morning Student Drop Off
Student drop off and pick up will be the same as it was last year. In the morning, you will enter our parking lot, driving north off of Barker, taking a right into our drive. You will then drive all the way around our parking lot to drop off your children. You will then EXIT our parking lot and take a RIGHT out onto Barker. It might be faster to take a left out of our parking lot, but that will cause traffic back up and could cause an accident, so please take a right as you exit. Students may exit your vehicle starting at 8:10 am.
Afternoon Parent Pick Up
Parent pick up will be the same as last school year. In the afternoon, you will enter our parking lot, driving north off of Barker, taking a right into our drive. You will then drive all the way around our parking lot and line up to pick up your children by the BASKETBALL COURT. When picking up your children, please have a sign of your children's names and grade level in your car window. Adults will be out there to escort your children to their cars. Please drive carefully as you exit, taking a RIGHT onto Barker.
Report an Absence: 847-963-7301
Our first concern when a child is absent is to verify the child’s safety. For that reason, it is very important that the school office knows the whereabouts of your child(ren) when they are absent or will be late arriving at school.
Absence Line:
847-963-7301
When your child is absent or late, it is your responsibility to call the school absence line or the school office to notify the staff of your child’s absence. Please state your child’s full name, the teacher’s name, the date of the absence, and the reason for the absence. Please do not leave this information on your child’s teacher’s voice mail or e-mail. Substitute teachers do not have access to teachers’ voice-mail or e-mail.
Parents are expected to accompany the student into the office to sign them in if arriving late for any reason.
If your child’s whereabouts are unknown, every effort will be made to reach you using the phone numbers you have provided. Please make sure that your child’s school office has all current phone numbers on record. If you have not notified the school with the reason of an absence and the school office has exhausted all attempts to reach you, your child will be marked truant for that school day and any other school day that your child is unaccounted for.
More more information about the District student absence policy, tardies, leaving during the school day, vacations, mental health support days, and truancy, please visit the District 15 Student Absence Policy:

Health care provided in the school health office is to support your child, allowing students to return to their classrooms. The nurse is available to work in collaboration with your child's primary healthcare provider. If you require assistance in obtaining a primary healthcare provider, please reach out to the health office for a list of community resources.
Nurses positively affect student attendance. A registered nurse at school every day allows for prompt and professional responses to health concerns and medical issues. In the event of illness or accidents, the nurse provides emergency care.
Responsibilities of the nurse include first aid and illness care, the maintenance of student health records, the development of healthcare plans, and screenings for student vision and hearing needs. Parents/guardians are encouraged to bring questions about immunizations, health exams, medications, or student health needs to the nurse.
The Health Services staff believes family is an essential part of good health. Your input is valued and welcome. Please feel free to ask questions, share thoughts, and exchange health information. We look forward to partnering with you!
Questions? For more information about medication administration, individual health care plans, health exam forms/immunizations, and more, please contact your school nurse or visit the Health Services webpage.
PTA
Our strong PTA provides Willow Bend with wonderful resources that greatly benefit our school. We understand that without the support of a strong parent community, our lofty goals and aspirations could not be met. We are always looking for volunteers at Willow Bend. If you would like more information about how to get involved, please do not hesitate to contact the PTA office.
Facility Use
Thank you for your interest in our Facilities. Our buildings are valuable community assets and many civic and community groups use them for meetings and events. We are glad to accommodate these groups whenever we can.
If you choose to reserve space in our buildings, please keep in mind that fees may be charged to offset associated custodial costs. Any organization using district facilities must meet insurance requirements and have a current Certificate of Insurance on file with the District.
Visit Facility Rentals to reserve now
If you would like information about which space might be the most suitable for your use, or have other questions, please contact Jennifer Gillespie in our Facilities & Operations office, 847-963-3951, or gillespj@ccsd15.net.
In order to provide security for groups using the building outside of school hours, please:
- Enter and exit through the main entrance. A custodian will open the door for the adult supervisor prior to the activity.
- Have an adult supervisor remain at the door until all members of the group have arrived.
- Do not put any items in the door to block it open. The doors must remain locked at all times.
- Make sure that once your group has entered the building, all participants stay in the assigned area. An adult supervisor should accompany any child that needs to leave the assigned area.
- Have all coaches and group leaders inform parents of exclusion dates so that children are not dropped off on evenings when there is no activity.
- Sign the building use form provided by the custodian on duty.
In order to help maintain the building, please do not:
- Bounce or pass balls in the hallway
- Bring food and/or beverages into the lobby, hallways or gymnasium
- Bring chairs of any type into the gymnasium
We hope that your group activity is enjoyable. If there is anything we can do to assist you, please let us know.
