I am excited to share that we recently attended the CONSEF (Concept Science and Engineering Fair) event in Chicago on April 26, 2025, and we emerged victorious! This achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and talent of our entire community.
Beyond the competition, our students had an incredible experience during this trip. From an adventurous road trip and a memorable stop in Indiana to an overnight hotel stay, the excitement was palpable! We enjoyed a fantastic pool and pizza party, and the sponsored lunch was a delightful treat that added to our fun.
Our robotics team showcased their skills and creativity, bringing home some impressive wins! They participated in a thrilling robotics competition, and our students had the chance to ride an exciting experiment ride at the fair. Additionally, they networked with other students from our partner schools, fostering valuable connections.

Let’s not forget the camaraderie and joy our students shared throughout the journey! Their positive attitudes and winning mindset truly made this experience unforgettable. Though this has been a long journey, we have conquered many academic and personal goals this year, and I couldn't be prouder of our achievements!
