An eSports update!
Friday, February 21st, marked the final tournament of an exhilarating series of three, and the eSports team is thrilled to announce that their Super Smash Brothers team emerged as the tournament champions for their game! Congratulations to all the players for their hard work and dedication.
The Rocket League team also performed impressively, improving significantly with each match. Although they were eliminated early in Friday's bracket, they were incredibly proud of their effort and growth.
The teams eagerly await the final scores, determining their overall placements. Both the Super Smash Bros. and Rocket League eSports teams will soon receive their final scores and standings. We appreciate everyone's support, and the team is excited to see what the upcoming spring tournament offers!
Congrats to our STC "Step up and BWell" monthly winners!
Our STC seniors had the opportunity to meet with Kim Mehl, Admissions Advisor, from Delta College this past week. Seniors were able to complete orientation for the fall of 2025. Way to go, seniors! We are proud of you for taking the steps to reach your post-secondary goals.
The students in Mrs. Levan's class received a visit from Delta College dental hygienist students. They received a presentation on teeth health and proper brushing habits and then practiced flossing and brushing. It was a great way to learn healthy, lifelong skills!

St. Charles Middle/High School and Delta College partnered to host a FASFA night for the class of 2025 and their parents. Thank you to all the students and parents who could attend. If you could not attend and need help with your FASFA, please reach out to Mrs. Hart at harts@stccs.org
On Wednesday, February 12, 2025, students in grades 9 through 12 had the opportunity to go through a reality check simulation. During the simulation, the students were given a career and had to visit different stations such as transportation, housing, unexpected expenses, family, Insurance, and savings. Students had to make decisions based on their monthly income. The goal was to balance at the end of the month and have money left over.
We would like to thank all of our volunteers who helped throughout the day. Without volunteers, an event like this would not be possible. Thank you to Mr. Corey DeRop, Undersheriff Gomez, Mrs. Brewer-Kelley, Mrs. Ashley Short, Mrs. Trina Kohagen, Mrs. Stacie Zelinko, Mrs. Katie Muirhead, Mrs. Holly Bostwick, Ms. Marcia Kendall, and Mrs. Colleen Bishop.

On Monday, the STC middle school students created Valentines for the veterans at the VA in ELA class. Messages of honor, service, bravery, and Valentine's greetings were included in all cards. Thank you, veterans, for your service. St. Charles Community Schools students care about you! Happy early Valentine's Day!!!
So many great pictures we have to post twice:)
STC Sophomores spent the day at Delta College participating in a STEM simulation that required them to work together to figure out power usage. The students used their knowledge from their Chemistry class and a new understanding of silicon, polysilicon chips, solar power, and semiconductors.
While working their way through stations, students visited different parts of campus. The day was finished with lunch at the Red Brix Cafe. This field trip was possible thanks to Hemlock Semiconductor, SK Siltron CSS, and Delta College STEM with the direction of Megan Birdwell.

A huge shoutout goes to our new Esports team!
The second Esports tournament took place at Merrill High School, where our Rocket League and Super Smash Bros. teams both showed significant growth.
Although our Rocket League team's journey ended early in this tournament, their improvement was evident. On the other hand, our Super Smash Bros. team went undefeated, securing a spot in the final bracket for the next competition! Their practice paid off, and we are proud of our Esports athletes!
We look forward to the team's next competition on Friday, February 21st!
Students in Mrs. Pumford’s class learned about static electricity and the magic they could make with it!
Mr. Wicke and the 6th-grade band unexpectedly visited the Central Administration office to kick off their Friday morning. The visit provided a fantastic start to the workday. #BulldogProud
