The Parent List: Add your Reviews

5/26/2024 12:48 am

As we wrap up the school year, please add to our list of health care reviews on The Parent List. It takes less than 5 minutes and is anonymous. Click HERE.

The Parent List contains first-hand insights from district 86 and 181 parents about providers that helped address their child’s anxiety, depression, school avoidance, eating disorders, insomnia, peer relations, grief, stress, ADD/ADHD, autism spectrum, and more.

Doctors, therapists, support groups, in- and out-patient programs, nutritionists, books, and holistic medical approaches may all be reviewed on The Parent List.

To read the existing reviews of providers, go to hcpto.org/parent-list/

Questions can be emailed to: parentlist@hcpto.org

In no way do the Hinsdale Central High School or Monroe School PTOs or staff, school districts 86, 181 or 63 endorse or recommend any specific provider reviewed on The Parent List. The Parent List is a subjective forum set up by the Hinsdale Central PTO for your convenience. Parents and guardians are solely responsible for deciding to use any of the service providers on The Parent List in any capacity, and the Hinsdale Central PTO, Monroe School PTO, as well as school districts 86,181 and 63, disclaim all liability for any damages, injuries, losses, expenses, or claims of any kind arising out of the provision of services by anyone or any agency appearing on The Parent List.

Our final THANK YOUS!

5/26/2024 12:47 am

Thank you to our Fundraising chairs DANA REKO AND LARA MASSOURAS, who had a BIG job this year! Thanks to their hard work and community generosity this year, culminating at the Derby Party, the PTO raised funds to carry the PTO budget for the next two years!

Thank you to our outgoing treasurer BRYAN GEIDT! Bryan has been patient and helpful with quite a few “big” issues this year, and always supported the PTO vision and fair distribution of our budget!

Thank you to BECKY BACOGIANNIS, who will be treasurer next school year, and has already proved how valuable and competent she is on countless occasions, helping in tons of big and small ways!

Thank you to our outgoing communications chairs, MEGAN BROTSCHUL and COLLEEN NAPLETON! We have appreciated your dedication to the PTO over the years in your decision making, communication distribution and social media outreach!

Thank you to our VPs CATEY WHITE and JEN KASMARICK who we know are going to do a fabulous job as PTO presidents next year leading with fun and kindness and creativity!

Thank you to ROOM PARENTS and all COMMITTEE MEMBERS! This whole operation would not work without our school community parents helping out.

Finally thank you to MARIA BUSH who has been a kind and helpful resource, and to MRS. EDER, who has been an incredible partner to the PTO this year, sharing her time and thoughts with us, all while being beyond supportive of our school organization's mission.

It has been a pleasure working with you all this year and serving our Monroe community. Happy summer to you all!!!
Erin Hanna and Sarah LeStrange
