3/2 Academic Awards Ceremony The MS890 awards ceremony was a night to remember, as students gathered to celebrate their achievements and showcase their talents. The gymnatorium was packed with proud parents and excited students, as awards were presented for exemplary work, and high averages in different classes. The event was filled with excitement as students proudly showcased their work in various sparks and studios, such as robotics and Taste of the Cultures. It was a great opportunity for everyone to see the creativity and hard work of the students.

To keep everyone energized, there was an open buffet with sandwich and salad options. It was a great way for parents to mingle and socialize while enjoying some delicious food.

Overall, the night was a huge success, as students were recognized for their hard work, and parents were able to see the amazing things their children were accomplishing in school.
