Attached in the image below is the Winter Homecoming itinerary for this Friday night. We only list the start time for the Varsity Dutchgirls Basketball game. Everything else will start as the previous event ends.
Last week, senior Troubadours member Ashden Murphy participated in the 2026 Missouri All-State Choir as part of the Missouri Music Educators Association Conference in Lake of the Ozarks. Ashden spent three full days rehearsing incredibly difficult/complex music with 191 other top junior/senior singers from around the state.
These students had the opportunity to learn from a world-class conductor, Dr. Edith Copley, who was the Director of Choral Studies at Northern Arizona University for 32 years before retiring in 2022. She also served as president of the American Choral Directors Association from 2023-2025. After these three long, fulfilling days of rehearsal and musical growth, the Missouri All-State Choir put on a phenomenal concert for music educators, family, and friends on Saturday, January 31st, at 2:30 pm.
Congratulations Ashden, and thank you for representing our school and community with pride and excellence!
