Quiz bowl practice and competitions are growing in popularity at Lafayette on the heels of some very successful students.
Lafayette hosted its first competition, the Lafayette Quiz Bowl Invitational, and the A-team finished the competition as grand champions.
The A Team consisted of Andrew Phillips, Thomas Cribbs, Cole Garvin, and Gray Fisher.
Top scorers for Lafayette were Gray (495 points), Westyn Williams (195 points), and Andrew Phillips (175 points).
Congrats to our spirit squads on finishing their in-state season. All teams achieved success at the state level before Nationals next month. The dance teams earned 2nd place in both the 5A Jazz and Gameday competitions. The cheer team HIT ZERO, an impressive accomplishment, in a talented group of squads separated by only one point. The middle school squad also celebrated returning to the state competition after a two-year absence. Congratulations to all these hardworking athletes.
Please join us in congratulating our District Teacher and Administrator of the Year.
