KING CITY R-I SCHOOL DISTRICT

Congratulations to our 6-8th grade music students that participated at the first annual Worth County Middle School Solo/Ensemble Festival! The students prepared a piece of music and performed for a judge. They received written comments, a short clinic, and a certificate. Gold Ratings: Cassidy Dyke (8), Porter Law (6), Latham Kollitz (8), Kenden McGhee (8), Tucker Wilkins (7) Silver Ratings: Rylin Ruoff (8), Logan Schellhorn (7), Saxophone Duet of Latham Kollitz and Titus Myers (8), Clarinet Trio of Bailey Force, Lillian Kendall, and Layla Wilkins (6)

Some of the 6th graders were able to perform a reader's theater, about arachnids, for first grade. The first graders learned that spiders are NOT insects, they are arachnids! They enjoyed having the big kids teach them.
