Superintendent Minute: A Dependable Ride
CSD17 Families, School will be in session on Monday, January 26. Students should dress in layers. Those who ride the bus should wait at their front door for buses to arrive as they will provide time for students to board. This will cause some delay to the typical bus schedule. Thank you!

It was an incredible honor it was to be visited by John and Peter Konjevich, who attended Channahon School District as children! We LOVE Peter's 'Class of 1947' shirt & were thrilled to offer a tour of Pioneer Path, where John and Peter attended many years ago. The stories these gentlemen shared provide evidence that CSD17 has been a GREAT place to learn and grow for many years. What a joy it was to visit with them!
