Dwight Common School, your child's school, wants to learn your thoughts about children walking and biking to school. This survey will take about 5 - 10 minutes to complete. We ask that each family complete only one survey per school your children attend. If more than one child from a school brings a survey home, please fill out the survey for the child with the next birthday from today's date.
Your responses will be kept confidential and neither your name nor your child's name will be associated with any results. Thank you for participating in this survey!
Please click on the link below to take the survey before September 22nd. Thank you in advance for your time!

Dwight Preschool Screening - Thursday, August 10th
The Dwight Early Learning Program is hosting a birth to 6 year old developmental screening on August 10th, 2023. This is a play based screening in the areas of learning, motor, speech, and social development. Children over the age of three will have a screening of their vision and hearing. It is recommended to have your child screened at least once prior to the start of school. Children 2 ½ and older must be screened in order to be considered for the preschool program at Dwight Grade School. The screening will be located at the Dwight Methodist Church on Thursday, August 10th. If your child has been screened once before, and you have no developmental concerns, it is not necessary to have your child rescreened. If your child already attends preschool at Dwight they do not need to be screened again.
To schedule an appointment call the Dwight Grade School main office at 815-584-6220 starting Tuesday, August 1, 2023.
