Junior high school students, in seventh and eighth grades, who are thinking about attending Nazareth Academy in La Grange Park for high school, are invited to the school's Academic Expo on Saturday, Sept. 29.

Students will be able to spend the morning at the college preparatory high school from 8 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. The Expo will allow grade school students to explore the school, take a course in their favorite area of study and meet fellow students also interested in Nazareth Academy.

Courses of study that students can try out include English, fine arts, math, foreign language, religion, science and social studies.

Topics available for student to explore include: Who Wants to be a Stock Market Millionaire?; Jesus on Facebook; SCRATCHing the Surface of Computer Programming; Improv at the Academy; Writing Happily Ever After: Transforming Fairy Tales into Modern News Articles; and many more.

Participants will also be treated to a light breakfast and given an All Season Sports Pass, which will allow them to attend Nazareth sports events for free.

Registration for the Academic Expo costs $30 and students must be registered by Sept. 21 to participate. To register, contact Kristen Stojetz at kstojetz@nazarethacademy.com, or by calling 708-387-8505.
