C12 celebrated its Authors and the unique stories our students have to share! During our First Author: Author's Chair Lesson, our students took turns showcasing their writing to classmates. Students were encouraged to make comments about each other's work! It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our students' interests and ownership over their writing!

WOW! Check out what 8th grade students are currently doing in S.T.E.M class! Students are learning so much about radio broadcasting, radio waves and signal, lasers and lights and learning about engineering concepts and facility maintenance! Future engineers in the making!

APMS 8th graders took a trip to our state's capital! The students explored Lincoln's home, the capitol buildings, saw where the governor's office is and learned all about the history of Illinois. What a fun trip with a stop at Illinois State University on the way home. 

A23 and A24 joined forces and created candy grams for Arbor Park students! All grades enjoyed purchasing handmade candy gram treats made by CD Program students. Each student was able to interact with their general education peers by selling the candy grams and then delivering them Halloween day! The students raised these funds to support their upcoming community outings and extra incentives they enjoy. WOW!
