A $2 million federal grant will help transform a shuttered school into an after school center for middle and high school students in Dundee Township.
When the Boys & Girls Clubs of Dundee Township's CEO headed to Washington last year to seek funding for a new center in Carpentersville, he figured $250,000 was the most his organization would get.
Last fall, the Dundee Township Park District agreed to purchase the former school from Barrington Community Unit School District 220. The park district will keep the land around the school, but the Boys & Girls Clubs of Dundee Township, which is paying for the property, will keep the school building and the parking lot for the new Woodland Impact Center.
"They were just so excited and enthusiastic about the STEM field ... I wanted to make sure they realize their potential," Krishnamoorthi said, adding that careers in the STEM field continue to grow and programs like this help students.
