from Jeff Calden
Congratulations to the SLVHS students who competed in the SLV Rotary Speech Contest last night.
Students were asked to write a speech based around this year's theme: Serve to Change Lives.
All three students wrote and delivered excellent speeches that had something to say.
Lexi Lemus finished in first place and won $200 and the chance to move forward and speak at the regional level.
Ari Robins finished in second place and won $100, and Benjamin Jibaja Meza finished in third place and won $50.
Kudos to our Cougars who stepped up, took on a challenge, and created thought-provoking speeches on an important topic.

Get your tickets for Little Shop of Horrors, with book & lyrics by Howard Ashman and music by Alan Menken. This sci-fi musical comedy is directed by Daria E. Troxell, with music and vocal direction by Nicki Kerns, and is presented at the SLV Performing Arts Center. The story begins when a meek floral assistant, Seymour Krelborn, stumbles across a new breed of plant, which he subsequently names "Audrey II" after his co-worker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn, so long as he continues to feed it BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II's out of this world origins and intent towards global domination!
