During American Education Week, we celebrate the power of public education and thank the District 88 educators and staff who do so much to make our public schools the cornerstone of our democracy, prosperity, and strength.

Emily G Johns and Plano High School are sponsoring a Food Drive in conjunction with the Plano Rockin' Christmas Event. Community members may drop off donations of canned goods and non-perishable food items in the bin located in the lobby at either school or the Administration Office located at 800 S Hale Street in Plano. All proceeds will be donated to the Kendall County Community Food Pantry and satellite locations.
