District 58's new phone system goes live Wednesday

Downers Grove SD58 News

Dear District 58 Families,

We are excited to announce a change in our phone system and to remind you how you can contact your child’s school and teachers. Our current phone system is more than 20 years old, and we could no longer obtain working parts. We have installed a new, less expensive system, which will be operational Wednesday, Dec. 13.

You can continue to call your school’s main number to reach the school office and your child’s teachers. There are no changes to schools’ main numbers. Listed below are the school phone numbers for your reference. If you were using a number other than the main number to reach a school, please update your records to the main number, as ancillary numbers will be discontinued.

Belle Aire 630-719-5820
El Sierra 630-719-5825
Fairmount 630-719-5830
Henry Puffer 630-968-0294

Hillcrest 630-719-5840
Indian Trail 630-719-5845

Herrick 630-719-5810

You can continue to reach the schools and your child’s teacher(s) through your school’s main number. District office phone numbers also will not change and are listed here.

While we anticipate minimal disruption during this transition, please be patient as our entire staff transitions to this new system and its different features.

Sincerely,

David Bein Assistant Superintendent for Business/Chief School Business Official
