BEMENT, Ill. (Chambana Today) — Bulldog families are encouraged to prepare for in-person learning as school resumes on Wednesday, December 10, following repairs to recent heating issues that made the building unsafe for students and staff. The district expresses deep gratitude for the patience, flexibility, and understanding shown by families during this unexpected disruption.

As the Village of Bement remains under a boil order, families are reminded to send students to school with a bottle of water from home if possible. The district will also provide bottled water for any students who are unable to bring their own.

School officials expressed their thanks for the continued support as the community navigates these challenges together. If parents or guardians have any questions, they are encouraged to contact the school office directly for further information.
