MR. JOHN KING

The midway point of the 2021-2022 school year has come and gone, and we now embark on the spring semester here at Argyle High School.

As you probably know, our spring semester is always our busiest time of the year, and it all started this January with our Theater Department. We are so proud of our Theater

Directors and the entire cast & crew of The Wizard of Oz. This was truly a district-wide event as Ms. Toomer and Ms. Reynolds incorporated students from every campus in the district into the play – and what a performance it was!

Kudos to everyone that had a hand in bringing this work of art to life in our brand new auditorium.

Also in January, our Varsity Cheer Squad competed in the Class 4A State Spirit Competition in Fort Worth. For the second year in a row, Argyle High School took home the silver medal, finishing as state runnerup. Congratulations to Coach Truebenbach, Coach Lemish, and our entire cheer squad on this huge accomplishment!

This February, Mr. Griswold and his Concert Choir will be performing at the prestigious Texas Music Educators Association Conference in San Antonio. Only six high school choirs are chosen from choirs all across the State of Texas for this event, and Argyle High School was one of the schools selected to perform. In fact, we are the only 4A school in the state of Texas that will be represented in San Antonio. We are very proud of our choir and know that they will represent our school very well at this TMEA event.

The spring semester also brings around so many of our UIL events and contests. Our basketball, wrestling, track, tennis, softball, baseball, and golf teams will all be competing for district, regional, and state championships.

Additionally, our UIL Academic Team will be competing for their record 15th state championship. We look forward to cheering on all of our students this spring.

With the spring semester well underway, we also begin to think about our seniors and their last semester on campus.

Graduation is set for May 19, 2022, at the University of North Texas Coliseum. We will have tons of activities planned for our seniors during the final week of class in May. We are proud of the Class of 2022 and the legacy they have left behind. I hope you and your student have a great spring semester.

As always, we are here to support you in any way we can. Please feel free to reach out to us if we can ever be of assistance.

Principal, Argyle High School
