The learning doesn't stop at the classroom door as Mr. Moore's Advanced Placement World History class took on Chicago in early October. From exploring the campus of the University of Chicago and Navy Pier, to witnessing jousting and dueling at Medieval Times; these students are always ready to learn wherever they may be. #MakeYourDreamsTakeFlight

Last Wednesday, cadets from Walk-A-Thon winning classrooms celebrated their accomplishments! They were treated to pizza, popcorn, and popsicles!

We simply couldn't do this without you. 💙 #MakeYourDreamsTakeFlight

With every field trip comes learning that would never have happened in the first place. We'd love to continue providing our AP World History classes with experiential learning outside of the classroom. Our spring trip will take us to Cincinnati to see the Nancy and David Wolf Holocaust and Humanity Center and the Museum of Natural History and Science. We are looking to fundraise for these trips so that more cadets are able to experience the gift of outside-the-box learning. Friday, 10/11, we will be having a car wash in the 29th Street parking lot from 3:30-5:30p. $10 per car and all proceeds will go to our AP World History field trip fund. Thanks for your support! See you on Friday!
