A small awards ceremony took place last week in the auto shop at Rolling Meadows High School. There was little fanfare, but everyone involved hopes the scholarship may lead to a life-changing opportunity.
Senior Justin Leander of Arlington Heights was the recipient. He has taken four years of automotive technology classes at Rolling Meadows, and he plans to put the scholarship toward pursuing his automotive technology degree at Triton College in River Grove.

The High School District 214 Board of Education honored nine individuals with the District’s Distinguished Service Awards. The awards are given annually to people who have made significant contributions to the District and its students. We could not do the work that we do in preparing students for future success without the support of community members who assist in so many different ways, said Board President Dan Petro in announcing the awards. While there is, unfortunately, no way to adequately recognize the contributions of all individuals, we are pleased to spotlight the work of these eight people who truly have gone above and beyond to assist in our mission.

In March 2020, Broadway and local productions alike were forced to shut down in response to COVID-19 to protect audience members, crew members and performers. While theater has yet to return to District 214 in its original form, D214 s theater departments have taken advantage of unconventional platforms to encourage artistic expression. I m really proud of District 214 and how we are working together to find ways to let our students continue on this path, D214 Fine Arts Coordinator and Prospect High School Theater Director Jeremy Morton said.
We re not being paused we re moving forward and growing through this experience rather than because of it.
