2023-2024 Course Registration

It's hard to believe, but we are beginning the process of scheduling for the 2023-2024 school year.  All current 6th and 7th grade students will receive directions on how to sign up for classes for next school year later this month.  We ask that parents and students fill out the online form together.  Once the online portal is open to register for classes, an email will be sent with directions on how to register.  You are not able to register yet and you will receive the email with directions at the end of January.

District Administration Community Letter 

Dear Kaneland Community,


Welcome back!  We hope that you enjoyed the winter break and that you are now ready to have your students return to school.  As we start back to school, there are a few important items to note.  


Students in grades 6-8 will be starting their third quarter of school and students in grades 9-12 will be starting their second semester, and students in grades EC-5 grades will continue their second trimester.  For grades 6-12, please be sure to check your students new schedule and ask how they plan to be successful in those classes. 


Enrollment for the Igknight Personalized learning Academy has closed and we are now working on staffing and finalizing student enrollment - we are excited to share that we have 111 students currently enrolled in the academy for next year, the 2023-2024 school year.


As we continue back to school, please know that we continue to have job openings in the district, please see the openings that we have in Kaneland CUSD #302 at this time.  If you have any interest in any of these positions, please contact Dr. Chris Adkins at 630.365.4114 or via email at 75522@Kaneland.org.  Current openings can be found at www.kaneland.org/jobs or at www.teachinkane.org/vacancies.  If you would like us to contact you to discuss our openings, qualifications, or compensation, please complete this Interest Survey


Again, welcome back, we look forward to a great second half of the 2022-2023 school year.  Go Knights!
