Under the advisement of Governor Pritzker, in which he stated to limit school events involving 250 people or more, we will have to postpone the St. Baldrick's Assembly for Friday March 13th. Once we have a new date we will share immediately. Thank you for the tremendous generosity in raising funds for St. Baldrick's Foundation and research to find a cure for childhood cancer. We appreciate your understanding, and look forward to a future date for our event.

Mrs. Humes' VE class has been busy! The sales and marketing staff, Austin Espinoza, Parker Sexton, and Garrett McNurlan pitched their business to Target. The VE class proposed a virtual contract whereby Target would carry their products in Target stores. They were able to secure a $250,000 contract! Virtual money, of course!
The Envolution team traveled to the Donald Stephenson Convention Center to participate in a Trade Show with other teams from the virtual economy. Students had to display and sell our items at the trade show. Students enjoyed honing their networking and selling skills.
Great job Envolution!
