The Annual Quad State Honor Band Festival invites the finest high school musicians from the quad state region. Five of our Tri-Valley band students were selected to participate in the festival. They did a great job this weekend and represented the best of Tri-Valley!
Freshman Carly Rickenbaugh has made impressive art time-lapse videos on YouTube. One is a betta fish with marker and the other is a gorilla in watercolor.
Carley won 1st place in watercolor at the state art competition last year as an 8th grader on her first attempt at serious watercolor painting. Her talent is impressive!
