All seven sectional qualifiers will be advancing to state! I am so proud of each and every one of these boys for their tenacity to battle against all the odds and work towards their goals!
Next week we will be competing in Jefferson City in the following events:
Open 100- Lane Hinton
Open 400- Charlie Evans
Long Jump- Christopher Gaus

4x200- Charlie Evans, Christopher Gaus, Xavier Santiago (not pictured), Lane Hinton

This truly has been a long time in the making, but I am sure they would agree that we are not done yet!!
Class of 2025 Seniors and Parents
Please Read the following about the Senior Field Trip To the Saint Louis Zoo tomorrow, Monday, May 19, 2025.
Due to storm damage at the STLU zoo we are waiting to determine if we can go the the zoo tomorrow in Saint Louis, MO. An announcement will be made in the morning.
If we cannot go to the STLU zoo in the morning we will re route to the Henson Robinson Zoo in Springfield, IL . The distance is similar and no change will be made to the departure/return times. We will still plan on leaving at 8:30 a.m. from Highland.
Again, We will make a determination in the morning on which zoo we will be going to tomorrow.
Thank you
