On Sept. 6, the Willowbrook Student Council hosted the school’s annual Student Activity Fair.

That event allows pupils to learn more about the activities and clubs offered at Willowbrook, and 22 groups participated this year. Student success is directly related to involvement in school beyond the classroom, and the Activity Fair allows students to find an extracurricular activity that interests them to become more engaged.

More than 65 percent of the pupils at Willowbrook participate in activities, athletic programs and clubs. If students cannot find a club in which they are interested, they have the opportunity to start a new club. For more information, go to www.dupage88.net/WBStudentActivities.
