Congratulations to the Hononegah Varsity Scholastic Bowl team for placing third in the NIC-10 regular season. Way to go, Grant Gouwens, Joseph Kasel, Ethan Butler, Sarah Yeager, Shane Levi, and Sebastian Wysocki.

What an exceptionally musical weekend for our All-State musicians. After arriving Wednesday evening in Peoria, the students spent two full days practicing, rehearsing, attending clinics and performances before they had their opportunity to shine. Nikolai Yun performed with the All-State Jazz Band while Noah Brockway and Wolfgang Vergara performed with the All-State Honors Jazz Band on Friday night. After two days full of rehearsals and then waking up Saturday morning for a 7:45am rehearsal, Audrey Pigott, Olivia Coleman and Addison Laumer settled in for their rehearsals and respective afternoon performances. Audrey and Addison performed with the All-State Chorus and All-State Band Respectively while Olivia Coleman performed with the All-State Honors Chorus. Mr. Kramper was also given the honor to conduct America the Beautiful at the Finale of the All-State Concert. Our All-State musicians did an amazing job performing with the top musicians from all over Illinois! You should all be proud. A big thank you goes out to Anita and Brad Bond for putting the balloons and notes of encouragement together for our students.
