AMS STEM Club showcased their cardboard arcade yesterday! There was skee-ball, pinball, basketball, plinko, and target practice. They worked incredibly hard designing, building, testing, rebuilding, retesting and so on. Very proud of these young engineers! #62Learns #62AMS

Today we celebrate this remarkable student, Hafid, an 8th grader at Algonquin Middle School. He took it upon himself to organize a sock drive at AMS for a local homeless shelter. He is one of the many remarkable students here in District 62. #62learns #62workingtogether #62AMS

Three cheers for @ChristyB525 who spent time this morning bringing joy to children as she delivered STEM kits to 5th grade students. P.S. It's not too late if you want one for your child, just contact your school principal. #62learns #62workingtogether

Our Foundation Board did something great today. They visited @62schools to give out grants as part of our Prize Patrol...a tradition that began years ago and was put on pause during the pandemic. Here's just a snapshot of one of our visits today. It was amazing to be back!
