On Friday, September 10th, LRHS Choral Director, Mrs. Alicia Lyons, took six of our vocally talented students to the Missouri State Unversity Honor Choir Invitational. These vocalists were able to compete for scholarships in different divisions. Out of the 20 schools represented, LR had the two winners. LRHS senior, Michael Thurston, and junior, Veronika Yerina both earned $1,000 scholarships and the opportunity to perform their solos on the stage of the Juanita K. Hammons Hall of the Performing Arts on Saturday, September 11th. Mrs. Lyons sent a message to Dr. McKenzie saying, “Michael and Veronika both won!!! LR swept the scholarship auditions. They rocked it. So proud!”
