Thanks to the tremendous parent support Friends of Payton had a record breaking fundraising year last year but we will have to achieve more this year in order to support all of the school needs.

We hope to reach new levels of success with our fundraising efforts this year and will be relying on your enthusiasm and support. Any thoughts or questions? Contact Casey Hoogstraten (773) 919-6294, FOPpresident@gmail.com

Attendance is important at Walter Payton College Prep. By attending class daily, students further their education and that of their classmates. A phone call is necessary by 10 AM to report an absence and reason for absence.

The attendance report number is (773) 534-0042. Upon return, a note written by a parent or guardian must be presented to the attendance office stating the reason for absence. Excused absences allow students to make up work, quizzes and tests.

Friends of Payton’s (FOP) main avenue of communicating with parents is the monthly e-newsletter, Parents Pass the Word. See below for the current and previous issues. To receive the newsletter, please hit the Sign Up button below.
