Student Life Holmes Junior HighAll State auditions were held virtually this year by sending in recorded auditions. We had six Holmes students take on this challenging task this year and are incredibly proud to announce that all six of the Holmes music students who auditioned were selected as All State Musicians this year. Congratulations to the following students on this wonderful accomplishment: Emma Halvorseon on violin, Mason Munnik on Viola, Abbby Sliwinski on cello, Kristen Engelhardt on trombone, Drew Ludeman for soprano and Varun Gulwadi as a tenor.
Today is the day. Make sure you participate in the voting today during Social Studies for the Iowa Youth Straw Poll! Thanks to all the students who made materials for today's vote!
