Virtual Backpack
Welcome to the virtual Backpack for DeKalb Community Unit School District 428. The Virtual Backpack was created to distribute information in a more “eco-friendly” way. Flyers that are approved will be available through the district website. While this doesn’t eliminate all paper copies sent home with students, it will reduce the amount.
Prior to submitting, please review the Virtual Backpack Guidelines for Flyer Approval
Materials posted on this page are the responsibility of the organization represented, and endorsement by DeKalb Community School District #428 is neither direct nor implied.
