A total of 43 students from Proviso Township High Schools District 209 received awards from the Society of Women Engineers and the American Association of Physics Teachers in a ceremony recently at Proviso East High School.
The students were honored for their achievements in math and science. Upon receiving their awards, the students expressed gratitude for teachers that have helped them along the way, including Sandretta Lindsay and Ranjana Desai, Proviso East math teachers; Bozena Suwary, a Proviso West science teacher; and Alvaro Serna, a science teacher at Proviso Mathematics and Science Academy.
"The students have done the hard work in learning the material, but the teachers also have worked hard in preparing the material in a way that is instrumental in motivating their students to learn," District 209 Superintendent Nettie Collins-Hart said. "This kind of collaboration is vital for students in achieving academic excellence."
