We're excited to announce a significant upgrade to our district's phone system, replacing the antiquated system that has been in place for several years. This modernization will improve communication and safety for our students, teachers, and staff, while also helping us connect with you more effectively
The installation of the new system is currently in progress, and we will begin transitioning to the new system over the next few days. We ask for your patience as our staff becomes familiar with the new equipment over the next couple of weeks. One possible issue during this time may be an occasional dropped call when transferring. If this occurs, please simply call back.
All district phone numbers will remain the same. We are confident this upgrade will make communication smoother and more efficient for everyone.
Thank you for your understanding and support as we make this much-needed improvement for our schools and families.
Sincerely, Herrin CUSD #4 Administration

To the Students, Faculty, Staff, and Families of Herrin Unit #4,
It is with sincere sadness and heavy hearts that we share the passing of Herrin High School student, Wyatt Reed. After a courageous battle with cancer, Wyatt's journey has come to an end; however, the impact he made on our students, teachers, and staff will undoubtedly endure for decades to come.
Wyatt’s love for school was evident every single day. His bright smile, genuine spirit, and kind heart touched the lives of everyone he encountered. Whether in the classroom, hallways, or at school events, Wyatt brought warmth and joy wherever he went. His presence made all of Herrin CUSD #4 a better place.
Wyatt's legacy of kindness, courage, and compassion will always be a part of Herrin Schools. He loved this school deeply, and we will forever hold a special place in our hearts for him.
In the coming days, additional counselors will be available to support any student who may need someone to talk to during this difficult time. We encourage anyone who is struggling to reach out.
Please keep Wyatt’s family, friends, and all who loved him in your thoughts and prayers.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Herrin High School Administration
