We are proud to announce that one of Mid-Prairie's seniors has been selected to serve on the Iowa High School Speech Association's RISE committee.
Wren Harris is one of three students selected for this honor from the Southeast District and one of 12 from across the state of Iowa. This was achieved by Wren's application to the IHSSA through a written and video essay, along with a resumé that highlights her achievements in Speech as well as other accomplishments.
The purpose of RISE (Rise IHSSA Student Ensemble) is to serve as the official student leadership and advocacy group for the Iowa High School Speech Association. It empowers participants by giving them a voice to promote literacy, grow leadership skills, and celebrate arts and communication statewide.
Members of the ensemble represent the diversity of Iowa's speech community and participate in a variety of advocacy-focused initiatives, including:
Acting as IHSSA ambassadors at district and state contests.
Creating creative media, such as videocasts and digital content, to promote speech categories and events.
Highlighting the value of speech, debate, and theatre programs to peers and local communities.
Participating in activities that foster confidence, collaboration, and strong public speaking abilities.
Please join us in congratulating Wren on achieving this outstanding opportunity! #mphawks

How about those Hawks! The Mid-Prairie Girls Golf team finished 3rd in the Class 2A State Golf Meet today in Marshalltown. Our Girls were seeded 8th going in and shot a season best 359 on Thursday and 353 on Friday. Junior Olivia Swartzendruber was the low scorer for MP and finished 11th with a 82 and 81. Morgyn Bender finished 23rd with two solid rounds. Seniors Paiton Chittick and Delani Blum shot personal bests on separate days to help the team score. Freshmen Macie Ihrig and Noelle Nelson also played at the State Meet. Congrats to Coach McArtor and the Golden Hawks!
