Congratulations, Austin! Congratulations to Austin Cary for his impressive performance in the MSHSAA Class 2 State Championships on November 3 at Gans Creek Cross Country Course! Finishing 27th out of the 170 competitors is a commendable achievement, especially with a notable time of 17:23.7 in the 5k race. It is truly remarkable that this was Austin's first year on the Valley Park High School Cross Country team, showcasing his talent and dedication to the sport. Congratulations again, Austin on a successful season!
In a dazzling display of talent and dedication, the students in the Valley Park Theater Department recently took center stage and delivered a captivating performance in How to Host a Murder Mystery Dinner Party (in 15 Simple Steps). The culmination of weeks of intense preparation and collaboration, the production showcased not only the students' acting and improv talent but also their commitment to excellence in the performing arts. The success of any play is measured not only by the performers' abilities but also by their ability to engage the audience. This year our students did both very well. Interviewing audience members and speaking with them in character created a memorable experience for cast, crew and community alike. The high school's commitment to fostering a supportive environment for the arts was evident in the outpouring of community support and the three night sold out show! Congratulations to Ms. Magalli and Ms. Hungate Wood, the volunteers, and the cast and crew who created such a memorable experience for all. This serves as an inspiration for future generations of performers at the Valley Park School District. To see all the photos from the show, visit www.vpschools.org/15steps
