Superintendent Update

Good afternoon, Warren Students, Families, and Staff,

We have some very important and timely information to share.

MSD Warren Township is excited to invite our families, students, staff, and community members to the upcoming Community Engagement Sessions on September 22, 23, and 24.

With the renovation of all nine of our elementary schools now complete, every Warren elementary student now has access to a modern, safe, welcoming, and equitable learning space. This milestone gives us the perfect opportunity to come together and plan for the future. These sessions will give you the chance to:

  • Learn more about the Enrollment Management & Redistricting Plan for the 2026 - 2027 school year.

  • Share your ideas and feedback.

  • Join in shaping the path forward for our schools and community.

You are welcome to join one, two, or all three meetings. Spanish translation will be available at each community engagement session.

Upcoming Events / Activities

It is hard to believe that we are just three weeks away from the close of the first quarter and our 2 week Fall Break. In addition to our Community Engagement Sessions, we have several upcoming events:

Parent / Caregiver Teacher Conferences

The success of our students is grounded in the strong partnership between our teachers and families. To further support this collaboration, we have scheduled our District-wide Parent/Caregiver-Teacher Conferences for the evening of Thursday, October 2nd, and the morning of Friday, October 3rd. Please note that there will be no school for students on Friday, October 3rd, to ensure ample time for parents/caregivers and teachers to meet. Information on how to sign up for a conference time will be shared over the coming weeks by your child’s school.

Attached here is the 2025-2026 school year calendar.

Warren Central Performing Arts Performances

The Warren Central Choirs will present the Fall Choral Concert on September 18th at 7:00 pm in the WPAC auditorium. Admission is only $8, and Warren Township employees will be admitted free with their township ID and do not need a ticket.

image.pngWarren Central Theatre will present "Chicago: Teen Edition" on September 26th & 27th at 7:00 pm, and September 28th at 2:00 pm, in the Warren Performing Arts Center.  The musical is set in the Jazz Age of the 1920s, and tells the story of Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly, two women on trial for murder, who compete for fame and attention while seeking legal representation and media manipulation to avoid punishment.  The Teen Edition makes the content more suitable for a younger audience by removing explicit content and language from the original show.  It is not recommended for children under 13.  Reserved seating tickets are now on sale, and are $12 for adults and $10 for students & faculty (with ID).  You can purchase Chicago Tickets here.

Have a great rest of your week, and please let us know if you can support you in any way.
