Pay District Fees Online
|
|

The District 91 Board of Education
adopted the E-Pay services in an effort to provide District 91
parents and community members a convenient and easy-to-use payment
option.
You need to use the
student ID number for each child you make a payment on behalf of.
The student ID number can be found through your ParentConnect XP
account or on the report card for 4th through 8th grade students.
Notices were sent home with Milne Grove students that provide the
student ID numbers.
A convenience fee is
charged for using this system based on the amount of your payment
This fee is not charged by or collected by the Lockport Elementary
School District 91. Payments can be made by MasterCard, American
Express, or Discover.
Payments can be made
for Student Registration fees, Student Athletic/Activity Fee,
Monthly Lunch payments and for Miscellaneous Items such as field
trips, book fines and other fees.
To access the E-Pay
payment system, simply click on the E-Pay image above. For
assistance, please contact 815-838-0737, extension 101 or email
lkrumlinde@d91.net.

Taking Learning
Outdoors
|
|
On May 12, KG 7th
grade science students and teachers took learning outdoors when
they spent the day at the Environmental Learning Center in
Mokena. Students explored a stream and pond ecosystem, animal
habitats and analyzed assorted Illinois flowering plants.
Students were able
to participate in this experiential learning day due to grant
funding provided by the Illinois Conservation Foundation in
conjunction with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources
Division of Education. The grant paid student entrance fees and
transportation costs.
Check out D91's Biodiversity
web page, which will grow in the 2010-2011 school year.
