Dr. Smock's 2024 "Safety Letter" is full of things you want to know about how Morton CUSD 709 is attending to student safety. Safety covers many aspects of student life and learning.

In conjunction with Dr. Smock's "Safety Letter," Dr. Sander has information on "The Standard Response Protocol" the District uses to improve crisis response and management. A common language is key in an emergency. Preparation and practice are key.

Morton 709 received a "Pre-School For All" grant to expand preschool services. Screenings are required. The next scheduled screening date is 10/11. If you are interested in enrolling your child for the Fall of 2024, please call and schedule a developmental screening at 309-284-8033.
