We had another amazing year at Youth & Government! There was a total of 157 students, representing 14 high schools. Our delegation was one of the largest with 32 students. The kids did an excellent job in presenting their bills in the legislative branch and oral arguments in the judicial branch. In addition, our four executive officers that were elected that year: Gabriela Vigil, Wonu Choe, Mya Ramon, and Akansha Nanda played a crucial role in the success of the conference.

Each year, the AIMS Rocketry teams compete in the America Rocketry Challenge. This year, Team Bravo Legacy (Anderson Stoker, Johann Bourg, Wilson Hummingbird, David Brooke, and Achilles Orpinel-Padilla) did exceptionally well and have been invited to the ARC Finals in Virginia.

AIMS THEATER students will perform Disney's "Moana Jr." Friday, April 19 @ 2:30 and 5:00pm at the ROTUNDA after our AIMS Spring Showcase.
