June 6th is National Higher Education Day!
@RegionalOffice47 #RegionalOffice47
The Regional Office of Education and the Sauk Valley STARS Early Childhood Coalition are excited to be hosting regular community baby showers with the aspiration to shower expectant and new parents (with infants up to 3 months of age) with parenting information, to establish connections to community resources, and to provide care items for the new child.
In an effort to make these baby showers a sustainable program in our region, we are looking for support from our community. Together, we can be a village for new and expectant parents in our community.
If you are interested in donating supplies or a monetary gift, please contact Grace Heimerdinger-Baake at gheimerdingerbaake@roe47.org.
Congratulations to the graduates from Center 4 Change! We are proud of you!

Kids spend 6-9 hours online daily, excluding school and homework. Harmful information persists on social media, including falsehoods that enable harm and targeted violence. How2INFORM (H2i) was designed to curb the spread of misinformation through social media. Passage of HB 0234 requires public school educators at the High School level to offer at least one unit of media literacy training, however, it is a training relevant for all K-12 students. This training provides educator tools and resources to aid in determining truths from fiction, critically analyzing media, and taking action when they encounter dangerous misinformative material!
