A PEEK AT THE AMS WEEK!
SMILE SQUAD IS COMING TO AMS!
NEW UPDATED INFORMATION FOR GRADUATION
Feed My Starving Children Field Trips
We are thrilled to be able to donate time at the FMSC facility in Schaumburg again. This is a field trip we took previously and the students loved it. Due to spacing restrictions, we can only take one grade level at a time. After we volunteer in the morning, we will be having lunch at Woodfield Mall’s food court. If you do not want your child to sit near other students when they have lunch, please let us know on the permission slip you will receive closer to the dates of the trips. We need additional adult supervisors for this event, so please let me know if you can help and which date you are interested in. We will be on this trip from 8:30am - 12:15pm on the following dates:
8th Grade - Monday, May 16th
6th Grade - Tuesday, May 17th
5th Grade - Thursday, May 19th
7th Grade - Tuesday, May 24th
SUMMER U REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!

THANK YOU
We would like to thank the District 48 community for your support of Family STEAM Night. It was so great to see people enjoying themselves again. We hope you had a wonderful time at the event and learned something new.
Thank you to the teachers, staff and faculty for your role in our event. Whether you hosted a table, helped with ideas behind the scenes, attended the event with your own family or assisted with the clean up, we appreciate you.
A huge thank you must go out to our sponsors: Dominick’s Pizza & Pasta and Lion’s Club of Oakbrook Terrace. Your generosity allowed us to have exciting exhibits and a great visual show. Thank you for supporting the wonderful students in District 48.
Attached are instructions for making bouncy balls at home with a few ingredients to extend your learning fun after school.
