A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Maine East Families, 

I would like to share several reminders with you.

Multilingual Parent Advisory Committee Meeting

Tuesday, Feb. 27th @ 6:30 p.m. in the cafeteria.

We are in the process of scheduling all students for classes for the 2024-25 school year.  This is an especially important time for our multilingual learners as we have some course and program updates.  We would love to share more information about these updates at our next MPAC meeting.  ALL families of multilingual students are welcome!  Please join us on Tuesday, February 27th at 6:30 p.m. in the Maine East cafeteria.  A light dinner will be served.  If you plan to attend, please fill out this quick form.  We hope to see you there!

Please take the Illinois 5Essentials Survey

Parents and guardians have an opportunity to participate in the Illinois 5Essentials Survey. As a parent, this opportunity will allow you to share your thoughts on the important elements of school effectiveness and help guide school improvement.

If at least 20 percent of parents complete this survey at each school, a parent supplement report will be generated and shared to help the school district improve. Thank you so much for your support! Currently we are under that percentage so I am asking if you could please help by providing your feedback today.

The Illinois 5Essentials Survey is administered online on behalf of the Illinois State Board of Education and the results become part of each of our schools’ Illinois School Report Card. The survey measures items like effective leaders, collaborative teachers, involved families, supportive environments and ambitious instruction.

All Maine East parents are encouraged to take this survey. The parent survey should take 10 minutes or less. The survey is available in English and Spanish.

Please follow this 5Essentials Survey link to take the survey. You will need to type in your personal email address, choose your county (Cook) and then type in Maine East.

Thank you very much for completing this important survey!

I hope that you all have a wonderful long weekend, 

Dr. Pikul

Fadi Rihawi

Mr. Kaiser offered that, “Fadi has been an outstanding student at Maine East both in class and in our Skills USA club. He is a natural when it comes to understanding and operating the CNC machines we use in machining classes. Fadi’s ability to apply the details and dimensions involved in designing 3D models to the machining environment are second to none. His ability to operate high tech machines and achieve the desired outcomes for real part production are what it takes to be successful in an engineering or manufacturing career. Fadi also has the scholarly spirit needed to put his knowledge to the test when he competed in the Skills USA State Championship last year.
