District 50 Proof of Residency Event Aug. 9 - 11

Woodland Community Consolidated School District 50 will hold its fifth annual proof of residency event August 9 through August 11 at the Woodland Middle School gymnasium, 7000 Washington Street, Gurnee.

The purpose of the event is to confirm that all students attending Woodland Schools are District 50 residents. In an effort to serve the number of families participating in this event, the following schedule has been created to provide families with options of days and times to attend. There is no advantage to attending a particular day or time.

During the residency event, parents will be given their child(ren)'s school, class and bus information. Families will have the opportunity to pay fees, deposit funds in lunch accounts, obtain information regarding PTA and the Woodland Educational Foundation, obtain forms for fee waivers and free or reduced lunch applications and view classroom lists for every school.

In addition, Spirit Wear will be available for purchase during the Proof of Residency Event. Please note that PTA accepts credit cards, cash and check/money order (made out to Woodland PTA) when purchasing Spirit Wear.

All other PTA-related purchases may be done with cash and check/money order. Spirit Wear will NOT be sold at Sneak Preview or during Curriculum Nights in September due to limited volunteers at these events. This will be the only chance to purchase Spirit Wear in the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year.

PTA will also offer a limited number of school supply packs. Box Sox will also be available during Proof of Residency.

As part of the Proof of Residency event, a survey will be conducted for the purpose of inquiring how families wish to receive communication from the district. This will be helpful as the district continues to enhance ways it shares news with families and taxpayers.
