Weekend for Champions
This Friday and Saturday, 35 speech students from Plymouth High School will be participating in the State Speech Tournament at Southport High School. At the same time, our boy’s basketball team will take on Evansville Bosse for the Class 3A State Basketball Championship. Our students are able to participate consistently at the championship level because of the preparation and hard work of our Speech and Basketball staff and students with great support from the community. Go Pilgrims!

Future Thoughts
Next year’s Kindergarten class will graduate in 2020. Our task is to prepare students for the future. As a result, schools are undergoing changes. These changes reflect our changing world and the impact of technology. The magnitude of this challenge is presented in a short video prepared by Karl Fisch and updated by Scott McLeod. Please view, “Did You Know”. https://breeze5.umn.edu/didyouknow/ Please share with your thoughts with us after viewing the clip.

I feel bad for the basketball players who can't watch the speech team.

I've been fortunate to watch both and know that both of the teams and each of the individual members put in many hours and much effort to earn a trip to the finals, not to mention a title.

With or without a title, their accomplishments are to be praised.

This may be a little off subject perhaps but I was wondering why the Pep Band had to come up with the money for the price of their tickets for the State game. Do the cheerleaders have to do the same? The Pep Band members are participating just as the team players and cheerleaders are. Maybe I do not have all the facts. Please enlighten me Dr. Hill and/or Mr. Tyree. THANKS

This basically says it all...

The athletic department received 22 complimentary tickets for the state basketball game. Those tickets went to the players, managers, coaches, and trainers.

All others needed pay for tickets. Since the cheerleaders are under the direct supervision of the athletic department, the athletic department paid for their tickets.

We're sorry it took so long to get back to you. The people with the answers were on spring break.
