In accordance with Board Policy 8:25, District 34 works with community groups and organizations that provide educational, recreational, and enrichment opportunities for students and families. The District offers an opportunity to make connections between organizations and families through Peachjar.

Peachjar sends full-color, ADA-compatible and interactive digital flyers directly to parents via email. Parents can view the electronic flyers from their smartphone or computer and click to register their children for youth sports, enrichment programs, community events, and more. Flyers also are posted on the D34 and school websites.

Flyer Guidelines

Organizations interested in submitting a flyer to promote a program, event or activity will be required to set up a “Community Organization” account with Peachjar. Once an account has been created, flyers may be uploaded for consideration. Flyers will be routed for approval weekly by District 34’s communications department. Flyers will go out via email to parents every Thursday and posted to all district and school websites indicated.

Organizations can create their flyers directly through Peachjar to ensure a professional look, compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, and to automatically include the required disclaimer that programs are not sponsored or endorsed by District 34. 

Flyers must meet the following guidelines for approval:

• The activity or event must be an appropriate educational, charitable or enrichment activity geared to students in pre-K through 8th grade (and their families).   
• The flyer must provide the organization’s name and contact information, as well as the targeted age group for the event or activity.
• To ensure equality opportunity and maximum exposure, flyers should be available in both English and Spanish.
• Community partners are responsible for ensuring the ADA text (that translates information on the flyer for screen readers) is accurate. Please proofread the information in this text box. Your flyer may be denied and sent back should there be grammar and/or formatting errors in this area. 
• Flyers should not contain embedded hyperlinks (use Peachjar's "call to action" button to add links). 
• When prompted to select flyer posting date, please select “upon approval.” Failure to do so will result in the flyer being denied and routed back to uploader. 

District 34 is proud to serve a diverse community. We encourage individuals and organizations to include a version of their material in Spanish (and, if possible in the other languages that are predominant in D34: Korean, Mongolian, Russian and Polish). 
 

In accordance with Board Policy 8:25, no material or literature shall be posted or distributed that would:

• Disrupt the educational process 
• Violate the rights or invade the privacy of others
• Infringe on a trademark or copyright
• Be defamatory, obscene, vulgar, or indecent  

In addition, flyers must not contain:

• Verbiage regarding alcohol, tobacco, drugs or similar products. 
• Endorsements for political candidates, parties or issues that pertain to upcoming local, state or federal elections. This includes events sponsored by political candidates; legislator- sponsored event flyers will be approved only when a legislator is not running for office.
• Fundraising unless it directly benefits school-aged children in the District 34 community.

The Racism Free Schools Act-Public Act 103-0472 is a law that helps make sure all students feel safe, respected, and welcome at school. It says that no one should be treated unfairly or bullied because of their race, skin color, religion, national origin, ancestry, age, sex, disability, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or where they come from.

Our schools will take action to stop racism and teach students about kindness, fairness, and respecting differences. The goal is to create a learning environment where everyone has a chance to succeed and be themselves.

If you ever feel unsafe or see something that worries you, you can talk to a trusted adult at school. You can also report concerns by using the online Bully Tip Line or Safe2HELP to ask for help

Per Board Policy 4:175, District 34 notifies families that information about sex offenders is available to the public ​​as provided in the Sex Offender Community Notification Law. You can find information, including a searchable database of the Sex Offender Registry, on the website of the Illinois State Police.

What is Faith's Law?

Faith’s Law is named after prevention advocate and child sexual abuse survivor Faith Colson, who graduated from an Illinois high school in the early 2000s. Faith was sexually abused by a teacher at her high school. Years later, during the course of legal proceedings related to the abuse, Faith learned that several adults within her high school suspected that the teacher’s relationship with her was inappropriate but did not take appropriate action to report their concerns. As a result of her experiences, Faith pushed for change to state laws related to educator sexual misconduct in K-12 schools. Faith’s Law was passed by the 102nd General Assembly as two separate pieces of legislation. 

The ultimate goals of Public Act 102-0702 are to give parents/guardians notice regarding allegations of sexual misconduct that involve their student; equip schools across Illinois with better information regarding the employment history of an applicant or employee of a contractor; give schools the resources necessary to make well-informed decisions about who they are employing/contracting with; and protect students from acts of sexual misconduct by school employees, substitute employees, and employees of contractors.

For more information, please visit the Illinois State Board of Education website.
