Congratulations All Around

 There has been so much happening around the school lately that it is hard to keep up with all the events. I wanted to take time and use this blog to send a great big Congratulations to so many students who have been involved in various sports or skills contests. Even though this has been a different type of school year, because of the Covid-19 virus, we were still able to get our students involved in their home school sports and several local contests. The other day we recognized our Spring sport athletes and had them all come down to the commons for a picture. WOW! If you remember our Fall sport athletes picture, this group has just as many students. It is so good to see all of them in their different color jerseys and all the different sports they are involved in. I hope you are just as impressed with the picture as I am.


We have also had three wrestlers compete at the State level this year, Jarrett Hornish (1st place Champion in the State), Hunter Long (4th place) and Chase Martin (7th place). Congratulations to all of these hard working wrestlers.



Just recently we have had our FFA skills competition in three different categories: Agricultural Power Diagnostics, Agricultural Mechanics Skills and Outdoor Power Equipment. As our Ag instructor told me today, "we hit the triple crown". Vantage placed 1st overall in all three competitions. In the Ag Power Diagnostics, the team of Sam Rager and Trevor Kill placed 1st and Sam placed 1st overall individually which earned him a $10,000 scholarship to UNOH. This is out of 78 teams and over 100 individuals. In the Ag Mechanic Skills, The team of Sam Rager, Noah Bibler and Eli Molitor finished 1st overall and Sam came in 2nd in the state, Noah 7th and Eli finished 10. This is out of 100 students and 53 teams. On Tuesday of this week, the team of Trevor Kill, Sam Rager and Tyler Sheets placed 1st overall out of 58 teams and Trevor Kill finished 1st overall, Sam Rager finished in 2nd and Tyler Sheets finished in 4th. This is out of 100 individuals. Congratulations to all.




And I would like to add one more student to the list and that is Jayde Ducheney who is on the Lincolnview Cheerleading squad as they placed 1st in the State competition this year. 



Congratulations to all of our students and all the great things you are doing. NEXT WEEK: I will be highlighting the students from the Business and Industry side and their BPA results. Thanks to all of you who make Vantage such a great school and by working so hard in everything that you do.
