The annual Spring Art Show reception was held Tuesday evening. Congratulations to all of the students who have artwork on display in the show. It is a wonderful showcase of all the hard work, talent, and creativity of the students. A special congratulations to Abby Bunch for receiving the Purchase Award this year. Her colored pencil drawing was chosen to become part of the permanent student art collection in the auditorium lobby.
Congratulations to all the SkillsUSA state qualifiers! Ben Bacon, Frankie Pedraza, Nick Gier & Jeff Brewer have advanced to the Illinois SkillsUSA State Championships, scheduled for April 24-26, 2025, at the Peoria Civic Center in Peoria, IL.
This event brings together students from across the state to compete in over 150 career-focused competitions, showcasing their expertise in various fields such as manufacturing, electronics, culinary arts, construction, and more. The top performers at the state level have the opportunity to advance to the national SkillsUSA Championships held in June.
🎶 What an unforgettable day of music and mentorship for LWE students! Today's Side-by-Side Concerts brought together the incredible talent of the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra with the rising stars of our youth ensembles.
Our fall production of Hadestown: Teen Edition has been nominated for Best Production in Broadway in Chicago’s Illinois High School Musical Theatre Awards!
Even more exciting, two of our students have also received individual nominations:
Logan Arroyo (junior) – Best Performer in an Actor Role
Molly Czechanski (senior) – Best Performer in an Actress Role
Our students and staff have worked incredibly hard to grow both the caliber (and quantity ) of our productions. We’ve committed to creating meaningful art together, and this year we took a leap - not only by adding an additional production, but by inviting students from all three Lincoln-Way schools to collaborate in something truly special. It is a joy to see that effort recognized.
This year the Mr. Voliva's Argonne ESRP Team (Griffin Reidy, Peyton Komer, Blaine Zekarias, Alex Lizak, Josh Dare, Tyler Fox, Jenna Abuhamdan, Damilola Alabi and Ishaan Patel) worked with the Center for Nanoscale Materials at Argonne National Laboratory to create quantum computing wafers and then characterized their results through atomic analysis.
The Social Science Department hosted over 200 students in AP US History, AP US Government, AP Psychology, and AP Macroeconomics. These students voluntarily came in to take practice exams and review material for their AP exam in a few weeks.
