District 88 invites stakeholders to get involved and connect with Addison Trail and Willowbrook

At District 88, our mission is to work for the continuous improvement of student achievement. We know it takes all of our stakeholders – parents/guardians, students, staff, alumni, community members and more – working together to accomplish that mission.

Our students continue to reach high levels of success in academics, athletics and extracurricular activities, and it’s because of the support and partnerships we receive that we’re able to build positive futures for our students.

From Sept. 25 to 30, Addison Trail and Willowbrook will host their annual Homecoming festivities. That weeklong event is a time to celebrate and embrace our school spirit and pride, and it also is a time to welcome back our graduates and thank our stakeholders for all they do for District 88. Below are Homecoming Week details. We invite you to attend these activities, and we look forward to you coming home to District 88!
