District 99 Fine Arts students earned nearly 100 Chicagoland Area Regional Scholastic Art Awards. Hosted by the Fine Arts Departments at Community High School District 99, 1,038 local student artists representing 135 arts educators submitted 2,188 works of art for adjudication. 638 total works were honored with recognitions.

District 99 artists won 94 awards, including 30 Gold Key Awards, 32 Silver Key Awards, and 32 Honorable Mention Awards.

District 99 will host the Scholastic Art Show Regional Exhibition from February 2-7, at the Downers Grove North High School campus Main Street Lobby (4436 Main Street, Downers Grove, IL 60515). The public is cordially invited to attend the Exhibition Opening and Artists Reception on Sunday, February 2, from 1 – 4 p.m.

"We are very excited to host the regional exhibition at North High," said Brayer Teague, Fine Arts Department Chairman. "This show is always an amazing display of student creativity and a testament to the wonderful art teaching that is happening in District 99." According to Teague, the art teachers from both North and South High School play an important role in putting the exhibition together. "Our District 99 art teachers are the engine behind this regional affiliate of the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards. Their dedication and tireless commitment enables student artists from all over the suburban region to have their work evaluated by professional artists."


"We are exceedingly proud of both the process followed by our student artists, and of the products they all create." said Glenn Williams, Fine Arts Department Chairman at South High. "Scholastic Art Awards represent a high point of artistic achievement for a high school Visual Artist. We also congratulate our visual art faculty for mentoring these students through the artistic process."
