Students recognized and forensics team honored at Pecatonica board meeting
Summary
The board presented "Pride of Pecatonica" awards across grade levels and heard a forensics coach outline strong season results, including multiple state qualifiers and medalists.
The Pecatonica Area School District recognized student achievement across elementary, middle and high school during the board meeting. Board members and nominators described honorees’ academic growth, citizenship and creative work in brief remarks.
The board also heard a forensics update: the season started with nine students (double last year), produced eight state qualifiers and several medalists (multiple gold, silver and bronze finishes). The coach emphasized that seven of nine students wrote original pieces and spotlighted two gold medal performers who presented for the board.
Trustees congratulated students and encouraged families and community members to attend upcoming events including the spring concert and state forensics competitions. The board noted these recognitions occurred before routine business and invited families to stay for a later forensics presentation.
