Congratulations to the speech team for qualifying six students and seven events to the state tournament in a record-shattering performance at the district speech tournament.

Kadence Schaecher, Poetry Reading
Ellie Nahm, Informational Speaking
Ava Deusinger, Prose Reading
Riley Cook & Kadence Schaecher, Duo Interpretation
Maleah Gerdes & Ellie Nahm, Duet Acting
Drew Roemer also qualified for the state tournament with a third-place finish in Extemporaneous Speaking.
Pacific won the district team championship in speech events. They also won the South Central District's highest award: the Wilma Turner trophy which is presented to the school that scores the most points combined in speech and debate events. It's Pacific's first win of the trophy since the award was implemented in 1995.
Finally, Mr. Kappeler was honored with the South Central District's Lifetime Achievement Award.
