School may be out for the Summer, but our D14 teachers and students are staying busy!

Recently, the Wheeling High School Orchestra program held their annual summer camp, which brought 90 4th-8th grade students from District 21 and District 23 together for a week of music, learning, and fun! The camp also allows WHS students to gain valuable leadership skills as they form strong connections throughout the community.

Through the D214 Education Foundation's Fine Arts Fund, we were able to support this program by providing funding to cover operational costs. Grateful for the ability to support our students, schools, and community by pouring into programs like this! 🎶

We are so grateful for Jackson's time with the Foundation, and excited to see him continue to grow and succeed!
