Congratulations to East Operation Snowball who received the OUTSTANDING TEAM AWARD at their annual awards ceremony. The Outstanding Team Award is the highest recognition that a group can receive.

On April 20th, the Esports team participated in the IHSA sectional tournament at Hoffman Estates High School. The Rocket League team took second place and qualified for the state finals at Evergreen Park High School. At the State Finals, the team finished 2-2 and in the Top 8 overall. Congrats to the Esports team for a great year!

Asian Pacific American Heritage month is an annual celebration that recognizes the contributions of individuals of Asian and Pacific Islander descent. This includes cultures from the entire Asian continent and the Pacific Islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. As of the 2020 U.S. Census, there were about 20.6 million people of Asian or Pacific Islander descent in the United States - a population that makes up about 7 percent of the total U.S. population!

The AAAG Club provides students a safe space to celebrate & learn about different Asian cultures. This year, the club took field trips to Chinatown & H-Mart and participated in the Winter Decorating Event. Contact Mr. Leu if you are interested in learning more.
