Spring FFA is underway here at WCHS! We have had several competitions in the past few days, and our students have been working hard to learn about career skills and practical applications in a wide variety of focus areas. Our Agronomy team, consisting of Jonathan Wright, Amber Kolle, Dawson Strunk, and Destyni Christenson recently placed 1st in both the Cloud County Community College Aggie Days competition and the North Central District Agronomy Event. Jonathan Wright led the event as the first place individual overall in both divisions, with all four of our team members finishing in the top ten overall. In the District Event, results were: Wright - 1st, Kolle - 3rd, Strunk - 4th, Christenson - 6th place. Congratulations Agronomy team!

Congratulations to all of our student musicians today. 7-12th grade students competed today in Choir and Band at our state level competition. Both the Choir and Band both earned Excellent ratings from all the judges in their respective categories. With this rating they showed off not only their musicality and how much they have grown and worked over the past 9 months. I will share recordings later on my personal page (Abigail J Sawin) so you can listen to Just how wonderfully they truly did!!
The choir had massive improvement from the TVL event to today and I couldn't be more excited to
See what this last month and a half of
School will bring for them.
The band had a touch of nerves in the beginning but powered through and got some great feedback from the judges and knocked their second song out of the park. So very proud to be a Tiger today and the leader of the Washington County Players and Singers.
Good luck to the WCHS students participating!
