Twelve high school students will be recognized by the Elgin Area School District U-46 board Monday with an Accent on Achievement for their outstanding achievements as musicians, including a student whose original musical composition was honored at the state level.
Students participated in the Illinois Music Education Association (ILMEA) competitive audition process to be named All-State Musicians, the highest musical achievement for high schoolers in Illinois.
These students are all-star musicians and their participation in this prestigious event reflects their dedication and skills as well as the support of their families and U-46 music educators, said Superintendent Tony Sanders. Parents, teachers and these students have showcased their resilience and innovation as they pivoted to producing and supporting virtual performances and employing new technology in the process.

The Elgin Area School District U-46 Board of Education on Monday will recognize the essential role of school counselors during a year in which they were challenged to find new ways to support students amidst a global pandemic and remote learning.
National School Counseling Week, held this year from Feb. 1-5, is organized by the American School Counselor Association to highlight the impact school counselors can have in helping students achieve academic success and prepare for college and careers.
About four dozen counselors work in U-46 middle and high schools. They have helped students navigate a year that has involved remote learning, hybrid schedules, and new technological demands; directly reached out to students in need of additional resources; organized virtual college and career panels; and continued to help students develop academic, social, and emotional skills all amid a global pandemic.
