On Sunday evening, October 18, you should receive information from the District #118 Board Office about scheduling parent/teacher conferences. Conferences will take place on November 4 (evening), November 5 (evening), and November 6 (daytime).
Please follow the steps below to secure your conference time:
Visit www.powerptc.net.
Enter the email address you have on file with your child's school.
Use the temporary password Belleville118 (without quotation marks), even if you have used PowerPTC before.
Follow the prompts to create a new password.
Click Schedule and follow the steps to select an available conference time.
Conference times are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, so we encourage you to sign up as soon as possible. If you have multiple children, you will need to schedule a conference for each student. If you have any trouble scheduling, please reach out to your child's teacher for assistance.
Call 618-233-1328 with questions.
The Illinois School Safety Drill Act requires that within 90 days of every academic school year, we conduct at least one lockdown drill. Please discuss this with your child and remind them that while it is only a drill, they do need to listen, and follow directions intently. The drill will be held on Thursday, 9-10-2026, and announced before it begins.
We are asking all staff and students to wear their Belonging Begins With Belleville shirts tomorrow.
Just a reminder that today is Dine to Donate for Henry Raab & Washington Schools at Bennie's. If you go to Bennie's anytime today, please mention Henry Raab and/or Washington and a portion of your sales will come back to our school(s). Thank you!
Welcome back! Classes resume tomorrow, August 18th. Preschool families will drop off and pick up students at your teachers selected entrance to the building. For safety and security of our students and staff, all visitors will need to access the office on the west side of the building to enter Washington School. Thank you for adhering to the parking lot designations. Our main objective is to keep students safe during arrival and dismissal. Early Childhood buses will be running a little behind the first few days as we learn the route. We want to be as diligent as possible as we get your children home safely. We appreciate your patience. We're looking forward to a great year!
After July 18, 2026, you may begin the registration process for students who are NEW to the district for the 2026-2027 school year. Please go to
