Friday Focus - Senior Teach Day
On Wednesday we celebrated Senior Teach Day, where seniors are able to give back by helping to teach class with a favorite teacher. Some really got into the spirit of pretending to be their chosen teacher!

Spearheaded by an all-around leader and deep senior class, the Buffalo Grove boys gymnastics team accomplished something it hadn't done in close to 40 years.
