Catalyst Circle Rock welcomed State Representative LaShawn Ford for the Illinois Principals Association Principal for a Day program! Representative Ford is pictured below with Principal Ms. Jamison-Dunn as he welcomed scholars to campus on Tuesday. Catalyst is grateful for Rep. Ford’s support during the Principal for a Day program and his support for the school in various areas over the past several years!
Catalyst-Circle Rock and Catalyst Maria will be OPEN Tuesday October 11, 2016 and every school day, with a full instructional team and a full instructional program. We will continue to provide a high quality, rigorous academic program with a focus on developing leadership and right relationships in our school communities.
Like everyone, we are hopeful that the Chicago Teachers Union and Chicago Public Schools come to a resolution very soon. Our focus remains squarely on our Catalyst scholars, families and our school communities and ensuring that they get an excellent education. If you have any questions, please reach out to the school teams at the contact information below. Thank you for your partnership in the education of Catalyst scholars and have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
The team at Catalyst Schools
