Congratulations to our Viking Scholars for finishing 3rd at state and representing Amundsen at the Virtual Nationals for Division IV teams!

18 Amundsen students participated in the 2021 Illinois Japan Bowl on Saturday, March 13, 2021. The Illinois Japan Bowl is an academic competition that tests Illinois high school students who are studying the Japanese language on a wide range of topics including their knowledge of the language and their understanding of traditional and modern Japan. One Amundsen team comprised of Matthew Bell, Kailey Garcia, and Carmen Garcia, won 2nd place at the Level 3 competition behind the UChicago Lab School, beating out New Trier Township HS who came in 3rd. We are so proud of our Japanese Language Vikings and of their teacher, Ms. Hitomi Kameyama, for this great achievement. Congratulations to all!

Inclusion is extremely important. Everybody deserves the chance to make strong friendships and feel like they belong. This is what Best Buddies and the Friendship Walk are all about; creating opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to build great relationships with their peers, and constructing a more inclusive society for everyone. Here at Amundsen, we are dedicated to being a proponent of this message and establishing a friendly, supportive community with our students. Please consider donating to the Best Buddies Friendship Walk to help us foster inclusion in our world! You can donate directly to our team page by clicking on the above link.
