Congratulations to the District 99 students selected to participate in the 2021 WPL/D99 Art Show. Presented in a virtual format in 2021, this show demonstrates the collaboration between the D99 campuses and the Woodridge Public Library.
Student work is selected by visual art faculty. Work is then adjudicated by the D99 faculty - DGN faculty judge the DGS student work, DGS faculty judge the DGN student work.
We are grateful for our community partners at the Woodridge Public Library for continuing to support this show this year. Special shout out to the D99 Visual Art faculty for continuing to collaborate and support student learning regardless of circumstances.
View the show in the slide deck above and on the Woodridge Public Library web site until Friday, May 7, 2021.
A woman and her rebellious 16-year-old daughter swap bodies through the magical power of a treasured hourglass. When it accidentally shatters, they must search for a matching hourglass so they can return to their own bodies.

Thank you to the members of the DGN Trojan Marching Band, and staff, for providing music, energy and spirit for the DGN Football Team and community at this weekend's Spring Football game. Approximately half of the DGN Band students were able to add this performance to their schedule this week, and it was wonderful to see and hear members of Trojan Marching Band!
