Dance

Coming up: Little Dancer Event @ Eudora, Feb. 9

“I love how we have each others back and never leave someone hanging. If someone has a problem then it’s everyone else’s problem too.

Choir

Coming up: Preparation for Music in Our Schools Month concert in March

Ms. Coffman has opened me up and showed me that I am a good singer. So this year I decided to be in two small groups and learn a solo for contest, and prove I can.“

Band

Coming up: Piano Regional Festival, Feb. 3 & Baker University Honor Band Festival, Feb. 8

Scholar’s Bowl

Last Meet: V @ Paola, Jan. 25

Coming up: Regionals Feb. 1

And, while having fun, we have a really good shot at making it to state this year in February, so that is something huge to be excited about together.” said Emily Hull, Sr.
