Please join us in congratulating our teams, parents and coaches for all of their hard work. We are excited for the College of Lake County Regionals in March. By Science & Arts Academy Our Science Olympiad team braved the Chicago area weather conditions today to compete at Rockford Christian Middle School, in Rockford, Illinois. It was a strong competition with nearly 40 teams at the Varsity and Junior Varsity level from all areas of Illinois, including nationally ranked teams. Overall, our varsity team earned second place and our junior varsity team earned third. Our parents, coaches and the SAA community are very proud! #Kaboom #ScienceOlympiad #SAACommunity

By Science & Arts Academy SAA students and faculty were treated on Friday to a special visit from Shane Larson, research associate professor of physics at Northwestern University, and the Associate Director of CIERA (Center for Interdisciplinary Exploration and Research in Astrophysics). Professor Larson’s research interests are primarily in gravitational wave astrophysics and data analysis, but he is also interested in various aspects of cosmology, binary star evolution, gravitational dynamics in exoplanetary systems, and Earth’s climate. Shane works works in gravitational wave astronomy with both the ground-based LIGO project, and the future space-based detector LISA. Learn more about Shane at http://sciencejedi.com
![]() It is with great pleasure to recognize our 3rd through 6th grade students for all their hard work put forth on their ExploraVision Science Projects. The project encouraged our students to think beyond and design a beneficial future technology. Our school has achieved Honorable Mentions on the following future technology ideas:
