Tuesday night, Dec 16th, The Choir and Director Mrs. Lenora Evans put on an effervescent holiday concert! Starting with decimated by illness, 6th graders who valiantly sang their hearts out on behalf of their peers who were out sick. Then the JH boys...They've got skills! So fun!

​

Of course 127, working with more difficult music started out with a Nordic Christmas song that harmonized beautifully.

​

Lastly, but certainly not least, the SR Choir finished it off with a medley of Christmas songs! Sometimes we forget how talented our kids are in other areas! And programs like Band, Choir, Art and Shop really give these kids a chance to shine!

Monday night in the packed East Gym, The Warriors took on the Panthers! In a game that would end 88-86 for the Warriors, started out with the Panthers hitting their first 12 shots from all over the floor, including some really deep NBA 3's.

Coach Kole and the Boys persevered and played with Grit and hustle coming back to take a 44-41 lead at the half.

Wednesday morning, during Advisory, DRHS students gathered in the East Gym, to view and participate in the Classic Santa v. Grinch battle! This year, the battle was Dodgeball!

And, as he should, Santa and his elves defeated The Grinch and his minions in this epic battle!

​

Last night in their first home game of the season, your 3-0 Warriors Girls Basketball team defeated the Bronco's of iFalls, 65-47.

With Coach George Goggleye stepping down last Spring, the girls are now led by Coach Kris Hamling and her assistants, Joseph Watkins and Scott Brown.

Please share with anyone who may be interested! With the boys defeating Mesabi East 118 - 25 last night, it looks like the East Gym will be a good place to spend an evening cheering your Warrior ballers on this winter!

Check out the pictures for some of the action!
