The Kings High School Mock Trial Team advanced to the State Competition held on Thursday, March 10.

They started their journey to state by competing at Districts on January 22, 2022. There were over 300 teams competing at districts over multiple days. Of that number, 99 teams, including KHS advanced to Regionals on February 18. After a successful Regional appearance, the KHS Mock Trial Team was one of 31 teams to advance to the State Competition that was held via Youtube.

Unfortunately, the team didn't advance to the second round after fighting hard against the state champions from last year. Team adviser, KHS History teacher, Lisa King said that the girls on the team have been competing together for the last 3 years. She said, "They have been working since October on this case and they just came up a little short against the other team. I am so proud of them."

Pictured below in no particular order are Karmen Kirker (Respondent Attorney), Erin Thompson (Respondent Attorney), Renae Gilgotti (Witness-Respondent), Emma Hoolehan (Witness-Respondent), Amelia Ballard (Relator Attorney), Maysaa Mohammad (Relator Attorney), Jamie Burress (Witness-Relator), Ella DeVage (Witness-Relator), and Allison Escamilla-Martinez (bailiff).

Mrs. Pratt spoke to the group about The Equity Alliance (TEA) at KHS formally known as Safe Space, which started in 2015 at KHS. TEA meets every Monday and supports all students in grades 7-12. The purpose of TEA is to share friendships and have fun together, empower and learn from each other, educate and advocate for each other, encourage and assist the student body, and fight hate with love.

The Firecrackers Jump Rope Team just finished their performance season jam-packed with twenty-five performances from Kings High School all the way to Annapolis, Maryland.

The Team recently spent some time traveling throughout our elementary and intermediate buildings to perform this year's show. This weekend, the Firecrackers will perform in Indianapolis at the Big Ten Tournament and have been invited to jump at Kings Island's 50th Anniversary on April 29.

Firecrackers Coach and former Kings Physical Education teacher, Lynn Kelley has been coaching the team made up of 2nd through 8th graders since 1996. The Firecracker Jump Rope Team is not just about jumping and physical fitness. Yearly, the girls take an etiquette course, a public speaking course, participate in many community service projects, and do several events to show and express their appreciation to others.

The Team will be hosting their annual Sparklers Jump Rope Clinics on March 15 and 17 from 5:30-7:00 p.m. at Columbia Intermediate School. The clinics are a great way to learn the art of jump roping and to learn more about trying out for the Team!

The clinics are open to all 2nd-5th grade Kings students.
