North Crawford School District

Congratulations to the 2025 NCHS Forensics team for their incredible performance in the state competition at UW-Madison last week! Performing in the Group Interpretation category, Mara O'Brien, Agnes Carstens, Lena Schmidt, Abigail Jorgensen received a gold medal for an incredible presentation of Shane Koyczan’s “The Crickets Have Arthritis”. In the poetry category, Lena Schmidt and Mara O’Brien (both double entered) each presented unique selections from spoken word artist Sarah Kay and received full marks to earn gold medals. Camden Unseth and John Powell each presented an amusing series of letters in the prose category; both scored 24 of 25 points to earn silver medals. The entire team made it to state with exceptional results. Thank you to Mr. Bankes for coaching and Mr. Ghormley for assistance with coaching and judging. Well done, NCHS Forensics!!

SCHOOL RECORD ALERT!! Records are meant to be broken, and that's exactly what Junior track and field athlete Gavin Tamling did recently. This past Saturday, at the State Indoor Meet at UW-Whitewater, Gavin broke the long-standing North Crawford shot put record for boys, by throwing 54' 2". This broke a 50-year record of 51'11", held by Jerry Campbell. Gavin wasn't satisfied with breaking a five decade record, and broke his own record last night at our home track meet, by throwing an incredible 56'10", We look forward to great things ahead for Gavin. #TrojanPride
