Eleven students from HMS performed at the district speech contest in Spencer on Saturday, January 21. Our entries were "The Story of the Phantom" from Goosebumps the Musical in the Musical Theater Category (rated II) and "The Happy Accident" in the Reader's Theater Category (Rated II). Our students represented the district well. Mr. Fisher is proud of their work and appreciates the time and effort invested in the performance.
