It was a wonderful weekend dedicated to giving back and engaging with our community in District 303!

Last Friday evening, the St. Charles Business Alliance brought the community together for the final STC Live! of the season. We were so happy to see so many D303 students and families stop by our booth to pick up custom coloring sheets and fun bike stickers! It was a great night filled with music, smiles, and lots of familiar faces.

Then on Saturday, the Big Hearts of Fox Valley event brought even more fun to the community, including a little dunk tank action! Our very own Superintendent, Dr. Gordon, bravely took a seat in the dunk tank. We’re not sure how long he stayed dry, but we’re pretty sure our community had a lot of fun trying to change that!

Big Hearts of Fox Valley does incredible work throughout our community and generously gives back to D303 students. We’re grateful for their continued support and for everyone who came out to support this wonderful organization. Thank you to the St. Charles Business Alliance and Big Hearts of Fox Valley for creating opportunities that bring our community together.

In a recent hands-on STEM activity, Anderson students tackled a collaborative problem-solving challenge. Working in small teams, they used cups, rubber bands, and string to construct towers—discovering the value of teamwork, trial and error, and learning from their mistakes along the way.
