Wednesday April 30, 2008

Fenwick High School (Oak Park, IL) has surpassed its $18 million campaign goal.  The Fenwick capital campaign, entitled "A Light for the 21st Century," has provided the funds to upgrade and expand much of Fenwick’s current infrastructure and to construct new, state-of-the-art classrooms and labs.

Fenwick has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as a Blue Ribbon School and by U.S. News and World Report as an "Outstanding American High School."  This is the second campaign on which Advancement Partners has worked with Fenwick High School.
