NEWS!

The UIL One Act Play, "I Hate Hamlet" by Paul Rudnick, is on its way to bi-district this April 2nd in Lago Vista. It seems the judge loved comedy, romance, and a dash of swashbuckling. Our debaters faired well this year with three teams sweeping the UIL CX District meet and two qualifying for State competition March 14 - 15th. The individual events - Oral Interpretation & Extemporaneous Speech added to our district total reaching 132 pts. Prose Interpretation qualified for Regional. All in all, a very successful UIL season.
