​Congratulations to our Science Olympiad Varsity and Trial Event Teams whose dedication and passion for science was evident as they earned fourth place at the Illinois Science Olympiad State Competition at University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign! KABOOM! 

Congratulations to the SAA students who were recognized as top scorers at the 2018 Northwestern University Midwest Academic Talent Search (NUMATS) Awards Ceremony on Saturday, September 29! 

Approximately 11,500 gifted 3rd - 9th students from around the Midwest took above-grade level testing through NUMATS during the 2017-18 school year, and a couple hundred received awards at this ceremony.  SAA had a strong showing as usual and our recipients this year scored well in the PSAT 8/9 or ACT tests.
