We want to notify the public of a fire alarm that occurred at approximately 12:22 pm at Eastland Junior High School. The fire alarm was false and stemmed from a test of the greenhouse fire alarm system. There was no emergency and all students and staff were safe throughout the brief interruption and were outside for less than five minutes.
We apologize for any confusion this may have caused and appreciate everyone's quick and calm response. Safety remains our top priority, and we thank you for your understanding.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
Do not let the date fool you, we are proud to announce that our very own Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Alex Kashner, has been selected as the IASA Northwest Region Superintendent of Distinction! This honor is awarded by peers in the region and recognizes outstanding leadership, communication, professionalism and community involvement. Dr. Kashner is one of only 21 school Superintendents selected across the State of Illinois and will be recognized by the state association at a luncheon on May 15th, 2025.

Please read the letter about helping your child succeed on the upcoming IAR assessment.
