Kwaku Crunchy, a senior from North High School, shared his plans to attend Vanderbilt University for environmental engineering. He reflected on a successful senior year, emphasizing the excitement surrounding school events, including a recent pep rally and holiday concerts that integrated eighth-grade musicians to ease their transition to high school. The North High basketball teams also celebrated their season with a pep rally, and the school's robotics team advocated for increased funding at the state capitol.
In addition to sports and music, North High recognized Martin Luther King Jr. Day with community activities aimed at educating youth about his legacy. The school also hosted a successful eighth-grade open house, attracting over 200 attendees, and celebrated various clubs achieving state qualifications in competitions ranging from robotics to cheerleading.
Janssenie Moua, a senior from South High School, announced her commitment to UW Madison for political science and introduced the new Teen Court program. This initiative focuses on restorative justice, allowing students to reflect on their actions and repair harm rather than face punitive measures. Moua also highlighted the school's successful forensics team and upcoming events, including a Black History Month celebration and a spring swing event featuring the jazz band.
Both schools are actively preparing for the ACT and engaging students in career readiness through various workshops and presentations. South High's athletics also made headlines, with notable achievements in basketball and swimming, including a senior who became only the second female in school history to score over 1,000 points.
The meeting underscored the district's commitment to fostering a supportive and engaging educational environment, with plans for continued community involvement and student recognition in the coming months.
