help/suggestions.

ask fellow Spartans for directions.
Hungry Visit the cafeteria for a variety of items including breakfast, snacks, lunch,
coffee. Check out the Vending Machines located in the hall by the Cafeteria.
Food must remain in the cafeteria.WHO IS MY COUNSELOR?
As you enter high school, each of you is assigned a personal counselor. Most of you are placed with a
counselor based on the first letter of your last name. You will see your counselor's name in Power School
when you view your schedule.
Your counselor is the one person at Glenbrook North who normally works with you during the entire time
you are in high school. Teachers, coaches, and even club sponsors change from time to time, but as much
as possible we try to keep you with the same counselor for all four years.
What do you do with a counselor now that you have one? Each of you will see your counselor to
accomplish tasks that are required by the school, such as receiving orientation information, registering for
classes, planning your high school curriculum, getting college and career information, and taking special
tests.
Listed below are some other reasons that students often come in to see their counselors. Keep in mind
that your counselor is here to help you be the best student that you can be. No one can think very clearly
about a math equation or remember a World Language if there is a big problem bothering him/her.
Counselors are trained to help students deal with many problems that can arise during high school. You
may have a quick question, a long story to tell, or simply need support problem-solving a difficult
situation. Either way, your counselor is here to listen and to help you find answers to your questions.

TEXT-A-TIP
This anonymous service allows students to text a local licensed/certified mental health professional who is
on-call 24/7 and can provide help for them or perhaps a friend that they feel is in need. To use the
services, students simply text "GBN Help" and their message to 1.844.823.5323, and then will receive an
immediate response providing further guidance. This is completely anonymous; the counselor can't see
names or phone numbers, so students can feel absolutely safe reaching out for the help they need. In
addition, a new Text-A-Tip app is also available.
SPARTAN CONCERN FORM
Fill out the anonymous Spartan Concern Form to report concerns regarding the safety of students.
Concerns reported via this online form on days when school is not in session, or after school hours, WILL
NOT be seen until the following school day. If your concern requires immediate attention during the
school day, contact Glenbrook North directly by calling 847.509.2462. If your concern is an emergency or
requires immediate attention after the school day dial 911.

HOW DO GRADES WORK?
The numerical equivalent of the letter grade system at Glenbrook North High School is as follows:
A=90-100
B=80-89
C=70-79
D=60-69
F=0-59
All grades, including final grades, are calculated by teachers through the averaging of percentages rather
than through the numerical averaging of letter grades. Once the percentage is determined, it is translated
into a letter grade according to the above table. Letter grades are given a numerical weighting for grade
point averaging as follows:
A=4
B=3
C=2
D=1
F=0
Each number except an “F” grade is increased by one point for honor courses for academic grade point.
Important Note: Only the final semester grade is recorded on a student’s permanent record.WHO QUALIFIES FOR HONOR ROLL?
After each semester, students will be selected for the honor roll if they earn a 3.3 all-subject grade point
average (GPA):
Grade Honors, Advanced Placement & Academy All other classes
A 5 points 4 points
B 4 points 3 points
C 3 points 2 points
D 2 points 1 point
F 0 points 0 pointsWHO’S WHO AT GBN Principal’s Office: Mr. Jason Markey, Principal jmarkey@glenbrook225.org Ms. Lauren Bonner, Associate Principal, Administrative Services lbonner@glenbrook225.org Dr. Edward Solis, Associate Principal, Curriculum & Instruction esolis@glenbrook225.org Student Activities Office: Dr. Michael Tarjan, Assistant Principal, Student Activities mtarjan@glenbrook225.org Dean’s Office: Mr. Bill Eike weike@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Jenny Jordan jljordan@glenbrook225.org Mr. Paul Vignocchi pvignocchi@glenbrook225.org Police Liaison Officer: Kyle Pilmer (located in the Dean’s Office) Student Services Office: Mr. Eric Etherton, Assistant Principal, Student Services eetherton@glenbrook225.org Dr. David Boyle, Coordinator of College Counseling dboyle@glenbrook225.org School Counselors: Mrs. Joyce Bozacki-Rae jbozacki-rae@glenbrook225.org Ms. Susan Chong schong@glenbrook225.org Ms. Ann Gebhardt agebhardt@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Heather Higgins hhiggins@glenbrook225.org Mr. Craig Niemiec cniemiec@glenbrook225.org Ms. Kerri Newburger knewburger@glenbrook225.org Mr. Mark O’Rourke morourke@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Rebecca Rogers rrogers@glenbrook225.org Mr. Mike Standerski mstanderski@glenbrook225.org GBN Psychologists/Social Workers: Ms. Bridget Bucklin: Student Services/Special Ed Department bbucklin@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Jennifer Cicciu: Special Education Department jcicciu@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Christy Hemesath: Student Services Department chemesath@glenbrook225.org Ms. Monica Mills: Student Services Department mmills@glenbrook225.org Ms. Jill Rodriguez: Student Services Department jrodriguez@glenbrook225.org Dr. Seth Roseman: Student Services Department sroseman@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Christina Seaborg: Special Education Department cseaborg@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Lisa Steffey: Special Education Department lsteffey@glenbrook225.org Mr. Patrick Wagner: Student Services Department pwagner@glenbrook225.org School Nurses: Ms. Amy Domke adomke@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Mary Kay Lutz mlutz@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Jean Yang jyang@glenbrook225.org Athletics: Mr. John Catalano, Athletic Director jcatalano@glenbrook225.org Mr. Paul Vignocchi, Assistant Athletic Director pvignocchi@glenbrook225.org Mr. Matt Purdy, Assistant Athletic Director mpurdy@glenbrook225.org Registrar: Mrs. Debbie Maskin dmaskin@glenbook225.org Head Librarian: Ms. Sherri Koeppen skoeppen@glenbrook225.org Instructional Supervisors: Mr. Chad Davidson, Fine Arts cdavidson@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Mary Kosirog, Career & Tech Ed. mkosirog@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Kathy French, Special Education kfrench@glenbrook225.org Mr. Josh Morrel, World Language jmorrel@glenbrook225.org Mr. Robert Pieper, Physical Ed/Health/Driver Ed rpieper@glenbrook225.org Mrs. Mary Rockrohr, Science mrockrohr@glenbrook225.org Dr. Anna Schultes, English aschultes@glenbrook225.org Dr. Maria Vasilopoulos, Mathematics mvasilopoulos@glenbrook225.org Mr. Scott Williams, Social Studies swilliams@glenbrook225.org
