Amundsen High School Home

While we may be apart, we can still make a difference together as a Viking team. Let’s connect our community through giving. Friends of Amundsen are partnering with the student members of Taste the Difference Club to collect food and goods for the Common Pantry to help fight hunger in our community. This event will run from December 7th through December 16th. For drop-off locations and other ways to give, please click on the link above.
