Silverton High ASB reports $27,931 raised for charities, spring arts and sports highlights
Summary
Silverton High ASB representatives told the board their Best Fox Ever fundraiser brought in $27,931, with the top fundraiser raising $9,606; students also highlighted theater performances (May 23–25), a choir state finish, and various athletic standings and community events.
Maria Wacker, one of the ASB student representatives from Silverton High School, reported to the Silver Falls School District board that the school’s Best Fox Ever fundraiser raised $27,931 this year. "In total, our Best Box Ever contestants raised $27,931," Wacker said, noting that the individual top fundraiser collected $9,606 for community causes and medical teams.
Senior ASB representative Kai Holly described upcoming student events and program successes: the theater department will present The Actor’s Worst Nightmare on May 23–25; concert choir placed fourth at state and will perform May 22; the teen art show runs at the Borland Gallery; and the Health Science Club is organizing a Red Cross blood drive this Thursday with signups still open. Holly also summarized spring athletics standings — baseball fourth in conference (10th in state) and softball third in conference (seventh in state) — and encouraged community attendance at district events.
Why it matters: Student leadership updates give the board and community a snapshot of extracurricular fundraising and participation that support school programs and community partners. The ASB’s reported fundraising and high participation in arts and athletics reflect both volunteer support and active student engagement.
What’s next: The board did not take action on the student report; the student representatives concluded their remarks and the meeting proceeded with the superintendent’s reports.
