We can't wait to see everybody tonight at Unpack Your Backpack from 5:00pm-6:30pm!
Join us for the Ribbon Cutting of our brand-new Agriculture Complex beginning at 4:30pm. We welcome donors, community members, alumni, parents, and students to celebrate this exciting new addition to District 227!
We have new phone numbers!
This is the last weekend for our Buy-A-Brick Program supporting the new Cambridge Agriculture Complex! All donors who purchase a brick for $100 will be designated as Foundation Level sponsors and will be featured with personalized bricks at the Cambridge Agricultural Education Complex. Check out the flyer for information on how to order your brick. You can order online or print out the order form to order with a check. Paper copies are also available in the Unit Office. Please drop off any orders by Monday, August 4th!
We're working hard to make the outside of our buildings look beautiful! We will be here from 8:00-12:00. We would love your help. Kids are welcome.
On August 12th, we will be holding the Ribbon Cutting for the new Agriculture Complex at 4:30 pm with tours and ice cream! Donors, community members, parents, and alumni are all invited!
This spring, we conducted a Community Facilities Survey, and several of you shared an interest in participating in an outdoor clean-up day. This Friday looks beautiful, so we are going to do a Clean-Up Day from 8:00 am - 12:00 pm. If you are free and interested, we'd love to have you join us! We will meet at the elementary school. Tools you might need are weed eaters, trimmers, work gloves, loppers, shovels, and buckets. Thanks!
The first day of mAGic camp is underway! Our FFA team is doing great, and our elementary students are loving it! Thanks to all the hard work prepping for this week!
If your child needs a sports physical, check out this resource. Nurse Candy confirmed that it is open to Cambridge students - just bring your sports physical form with the parent section completed!
We still have a few spots available for our preschool screening this Wednesday, July 30th. To schedule an appointment, please call the elementary school at 309-937-2028.
🧁👩🍳 Shoutout to Mrs. Jewett for whipping up something sweet in our "Try Something New" Summer Challenge! With help from her daughter and Mrs. Miller, she took on a brand-new recipe—peanut butter stuffed cupcakes—and they were a delicious success! 😋👏
Trying new things (especially in the kitchen) is always better with great company. Way to go, Mrs. Jewett! 🎉

🎡💪 Huge shoutout to Mrs. Strand for facing her fears in our "Try Something New" Summer Challenge! While visiting London, she took a brave spin on the iconic London Eye—despite being seriously afraid of heights! 😱
Luckily, she had support from Mr. Elder…and a Fitbit that confirmed just how intense that ride was! 😄 Way to go, Mrs. Strand—we’re so proud of your courage and adventurous spirit! ✨

🍞✨ Shoutout to Mrs. Taber for rising to the occasion in our "Try Something New" Summer Challenge! Recently, she baked her very first sourdough loaf—and shared that it actually looked (and smelled!) like real bread! 🙌💛
With a little help from Mrs. Miller and a lot of love from her girls, “Betty” the starter got all the attention she needed. Even with a few moments of doubt, Mrs. Taber stuck with it—and we’re so glad she did!

Happy Birthday, Mr. Reagan! We are so grateful for all you do for our students, staff, and families!
Congratulations to Mrs. Wood, an Illinois School Counselor of the Year Honoree! We are so proud of her and the difference she makes every day!
🎆❤️ Shoutout to Mrs. Nelson for embracing the "Try Something New" Summer Challenge in true DIY spirit! She watched YouTube tutorials and created her very first Fourth of July wreath — and wow, what a festive result! ✨
It took longer than expected and came with its fair share of trial and error, but Mrs. Nelson stuck with it. Along the way, she gained a whole new appreciation for the talent and effort behind handmade wreaths. 💐👏
Trying something new isn’t always easy — but it’s always worth it. Way to go, Mrs. Nelson!

🐶✨ Shoutout to Mrs. Higgs for another amazing first in our "Try Something New" Summer Challenge! She just finished this adorable patchwork pup—her very first stuffed animal ever! 🧵💛

🌞 Happy First Day of Summer! We're excited to kick off our "Try Something New" Summer Challenge—and Mrs. Miller is leading the way!
She took on a quilt challenge for the fair, where participants were given a paw print fabric and the task of creating a quilted bag of any kind. With no pattern and lots of creativity, she winged it and made this amazing bag—her first ever! 🧵🐾We’re officially inspired! 🙌
