We’re proud to share that the District 210 College Fair was an incredible event, featuring over 145 colleges and universities in attendance!
A huge shoutout to Mr. Smith, LWC College Counselor, and Mrs. Zaucha, LWC School Counselor, for their outstanding leadership and dedication in organizing this impactful event.
We also want to recognize the amazing PPS team members from all three Lincoln-Way high schools, who came together to support and help make this event a success.
Students had the opportunity to gather valuable information about college admissions, application deadlines, scholarships, FAFSA, and more!

Earlier this week, students in Ms. Rush’s English 4 class presented infographics that they created. The infographics had key information on them from their annotated bibliography projects. They had to research career fields that they’re interested in and discuss their findings with peers.
Mrs. Korczak's Ms. Rush's, and Mr. Vlach’s English 1 Honors classes crafted original children’s books for their narrative projects. Today, they were responsible for presenting these stories to groups of their peers. Not only did students exhibit mastery of plot, theme, characterization, and narrative writing, they also demonstrated growth in their speaking and listening skills through presenting and reflecting on the project. Everyone enjoyed the project; there are several potential authors and illustrators in these classes!
Culinary 1 students are in the lab and learning the ways of following directions, working together, & keeping it clean. Perfect recipe for a good year!
Mrs. Korczak's English 4 classes participated in her annual puzzle competition! The head fake is that it is not intended for the students to complete the puzzle, but to work together and communicate strategy.The students were engaged, and several asked to do this activity again!

Even more amazing—we increased our total units collected by 82% compared to last year!
