ROE’s ‘WOW’ Student Photo Contest Week 2: St Charles North Is Star-Studded Winner
A diversity in submissions is what makes the Kane County Regional Office of Education’s nine-week student photo contest so darned entertaining.
From capturing the rich fall colors and changes in nature, to demonstrating the new techniques being taught in Kane County classrooms, the Kane County Regional Office of Education judges love receiving students’ photos. The challenge is narrowing it down to the top 10 photos of the week.
This week we received 63 submissions! There are still seven weeks left in the contest, and it is not too late to join.
Public and private high school teachers are encouraged to submit students’ work to Ellen Kamps at the Regional Office of Education.
