MS50-El Puente Community School

Last we held our inaugural Art Beat Student Gallery! This gallery showcased student work from across all grade levels and featured painting, drawings, collages, digital art, comic books, 3D models, fashion, and so much more! We are amazed at the incredible creativity of our students. The gallery also featured live music from our Jazz Band and a performance by our dancers.

We love the chance to have our students run the show and that is just what they did at this spring’s D14 Elementary Debate Tournament where our students served as the judges for 200 elementary debaters from across the district and beyond and at the first ever Community School District 14 elementary Mathletes tournament hosted and scored by our Mathletes!

Check out some photos of our students stepping up as leaders!

Prom 2026 was magical! We loved the chance to see our incredible 8th graders dressed to impress and celebrate their past three years at MS 50 with a great meal, lots of dancing, and even more laughs.

In May, our student scientists displayed their remarkable research and months of hard work at our 4th annual science fair! Each project used the scientific method to explore hypotheses centered around students’ interests. Our staff and guest judges scored each project and the top projects in each class took home ribbons!
