Plainfield North High School -

What a day! The 73rd Plainfield Community Homecoming Parade filled downtown with music, school spirit, and community pride this past weekend!

This year’s theme, “Literary Legends – Celebrating Famous Characters from the Last 100 Years,” honored the Plainfield Area Public Library’s centennial. Leading the parade was Grand Marshal Mindy Jackson, the library’s School Services Librarian, who has spent decades inspiring a love of reading in District 202 students. 📚✨

A wonderful tradition for decades, the parade once again showcased the energy, talent, and pride of our schools and community.

Tru-Green will be spraying for weeds on Monday, September 15 across the district.

Flags at all district buildings will fly at half-staff today in honor of Patriot Day. #202proud
