Randall Consolidated School J1

New Employee Spotlight - Scott Buhler, Health & Physical Education Teacher! "I'm excited to be teaching at Randall because it has brought me closer to the community that I grew up in and It will provide me with even more opportunity to plant my roots." "Perseverance is definitely my favorite of the fab five. Having the willpower as a student to continue working through challenges is a skill I would love to help instill in students." "I have many hobbies outside of school including hiking, kayaking, skiing and weight lifting but most of all, I really enjoy watching and playing baseball." "I will empower excellence by providing students with relatable and interesting content as well as teaching that content in an exciting way that will stick with them for years to come."

Randall Families, See the attached form for Junior Panthers Registration!

New Employee Spotlight - Karla Straukas, 4K Teacher! "I am looking forward to working at Randall as I grew up in the community, I went to Randall as a student, and my kids go here as well. I am most excited about problem-solving with the little 4Kers here at Randall. My hobby/interest is scrapbooking as I love to capture memories. I will empower excellence by listening and empathizing with the kids."

We are hours away from our annual drop off night and just days away from the start of the school year. This is my 24th year in education and every year has excitement and opportunities that come from every angle! This year will be no different. I can guarantee that. Some initial excitement comes from having our students back in the building and watching our upcoming referendum projects take shape. We have already had a few challenges or opportunities that you all know. We have had no, or inconsistent, internet / phones for nine (9) days over the past three weeks. While we don’t need the internet for trending on Tik Tok - not having it really hurts our ability to complete what our staff needs to. The second challenge is finding bus drivers. We have had some of our former bus friends change rolls or get full time work that doesn’t allow them to drive anymore. The bus driver shortage is all over and unfortunately is now impacting Randall. Look for communication from our Deans and Principal on the impact that this shortage will have on the start of our school year. This evening we may not be able to provide all the answers that are wanted around transportation, but we will communicate as soon as possible. Good or bad, the best part is that on August 29th we GET TO welcome back our students, your children, to Randall. Our teachers, which are amazing, GET TO have the opportunity and time to be and do amazing things with our students. Thanks for your grace and patience, it is appreciated more than you know. Regardless of any starting hurdles, all of us here at Randall are looking forward to an amazing 2023-2024 school year. With Gratitude and Thanks, Bob Antholine Randall District Administrator

Randall Parents/Guardians, Sometimes we need to ask for some grace and patience. Today is the seventh (7th) day over the past two and a half weeks that we have had outages that have impacted our work here these last remaining days of summer vacation. The good news is this is NOT an internal Randall issue, but without our outside provider working we can't communicate out. There is no excuse, just relaying that again today we have no phone or internet access. This is greatly impacting our communication with each of you around class lists as well as Drop Off Night. Supply Drop Off is tomorrow (Thursday) from 5:30-7:00 pm, as we ask that new to Randall families come from 4:30-5:30 pm. As soon as we are able to communicate any updates we will do so via our Facebook page and/or email as needed. Again, thank you for understanding. With Gratitude, Bob Antholine Randall District Administrator

New Employee Spotlight - Dylan Sanchez! "I am looking forward to working at Randall because I currently live in the community and I see how wonderful everyone is. This was something I wanted to be a part of and I’m super excited to work here! Out of the fab 5, I am most excited to work with students to gear their perseverance and show them that they can work through any problems. Perseverance builds strong and confident students and any of our students is capable of doing anything. Obstacles are made to be overcome! Some of my hobbies and interests include playing video games with friends and I am a big sports person. I love to golf and play basketball in my free time. I also watch sports on TV, such as football and baseball. Of course, I watch Chicago sports teams since I am from Illinois (bear down!) I will empower excellence by providing opportunities for students to explore their passions and talents. I would also encourage setting achievable goals each quarter in which I will provide them with the tools to achieve their goals. This way they have the tools to be empowered through excellence!"

More summer school fun! Math games and partner reading in Mrs. Kutsch’s class!

Check out students from Mrs. Varrassi's summer school classes! Dance and the Arts helped the students explore different forms of art including dance, painting, music, and sculpture. They had a lot of fun creating lots of masterpieces. The Babysitter's Club read through book 1 and discussed story elements while also learning about the features of a graphic novel. They then discussed the do's and don'ts of babysitting. We will end our time by "babysitting" a 5K buddy! They created crafts and games to play as they demonstrated their understanding of a great babysitter!
