Several high school students helped with the auction as well. Pictured are Emma Bailliez, Ryan Wood, band director, Zackary Woodard and Miah Malin. Here they are raising the bid on Mr. Wood’s creation of Oreo balls which he is famous for making and by all accounts are delicious.
Arthur Lovington Atwood Hammond High School was the setting Saturday evening, April 9, for the ALAH Fine Arts Boosters Dessert Theater.
All music and art was provided by the students from CUSD #305.
Those in attendance had the pleasure of hearing the junior high band and junior high chorus as well as high school chorus and high school band.
There were five ‘Senior Spotlight’ performances by McKayla Custer, Makayla Harshbarger, Melyne Sherwood, Elizabeth Tighe and Mackenzie Wright along with ‘Senior Spotlight’ art displays for Brooke Clark, Grace Garrett, Delaney Gillis, Piper Johnson and Abigail Lilly.
Other seniors participating with chorus and band were: Kaitlyn Curran, Quentin Day, Tiffany McClain, Michael Miller, Mallory Nichols, Payton Rawlins, Kiya Rhodes, Emma Sausman, Daisy Taylor, Quinn Taylor and Zackary Woodard,.
A lively auction with Lyle Dorjahn as auctioneer and with the help of basketball coach Brad McGill, a few parents and some students raised quite a bit of money for the Fine Arts Department at the end of the evening right before the high school band played their final number, Marches of John Williams.
In total, several thousand dollars were raised that will be well used for our students.
Fine arts department faculty include Katy Agney, art teacher at both Atwood Hammond and Lovington Grade Schools; Lisa Bertetto, art teacher at Arthur Grade School; Marylisa Renfro, art teacher at ALAH High School; Tina Harvey, music director, Atwood Hammond Grade School; Katherine Rosenbaum, music director, Lovington Grade School; Stephen McClarey, chorus director, Ryan Wood, band director, and Ethyan DeLaughter, student teacher, all at both Arthur Grade School and ALAH High School.
The Fine Arts Boosters is composed of parents, businesses and individuals who are interested in supporting and promoting the Fine Arts (Art, Band, Chorus, Drama) programs in the District #305 schools.
