Congratulations to our Knowledge Bowl Team for claiming first place!  It was a close battle that went back and forth, but after all the competitions, our team earned the most points for the year.  Also, special recognition goes to Alaina Lustig, Sage Elven, and Dylan Klapprich in celebration of Senior Night and their last Knowledge Bowl meet. They have participated for 4 years and have really contributed a lot.  We're definitely going to miss them.  At the competition we had a lot of support from parents as table judges and HOSA members in selling concessions.  Thank you to the students and parents for being table judges, cooking haystacks, and selling treats.  With your help, we were able to enjoy a real celebration!  We also want to thank Darbie Duclos for all her time and coaching this year.
