I’m so proud of the talented (and goofy) TJHS students that I get to work with every day! These Choir and Band students rocked it at the IESA State Solo and Ensemble Contest on March 25. They ALL received Superior ratings, and we brought home 41 First place medals! These kids represent the future of the performing arts in our Taylorville community!

Mrs. Hickey recently finished a jump rope unit in P.E at North. These first and second grade students received their black belt in "Jump Rope Ninja!" Students had to pass levels based on a certain number of jumps in a row without stopping. To earn the 2nd grade black belt, students had to jump 75 times in a row. To earn the 1st grade black belt, students had to jump 50 times in a row.
