Congrats to all three Tonganoxie High School choirs for earning "I" (Outstanding) ratings at KSHSAA's State Large Ensemble Festival in Atchison yesterday!
- Chieftain Singers
- Treble Choir
- Tenor/Bass Choir
When Mr. Gifford began teaching in Tonganoxie, the Chieftain Singers competed as a small ensemble at the 2007 & 2008 Regional Solo & Small Ensemble Festivals. His goal was to grow the program and compete at KSHSAA’s State Large Group Festival every year. In 2009, the Chieftain Singers competed as a large ensemble at host site Gardner-Edgerton High School and received a “II” rating.
Since then, they have reeled off 14 straight “I” ratings (no festival in 2020). Including the Chieftain Singers, the Treble Choir, and the Tenor/Bass Choir, Tonganoxie Vocal Music has earned 32 Large Ensemble State “one” ratings from 2010 to 2024!!! Well done and congrats to our Chieftain Singers, Treble Choir, Tenor/Bass Choir, Mrs. Day, and Mr. Gifford!

Students in Mr. Tollefson's Anatomy & Physiology class traveled to KUMed for a high school health care day. The event was organized by 2016 THS graduate Kennedy Morey! Students got to tour the anatomy lab and practice a variety of skills such as suturing, ultrasound, and casting a carrot. Great experience! #tongienation #usd464

Having experienced the tragedies of fatalities and seriously injured peers and community members in accidents, THS FCCLA wanted to remind students that making bad decisions in vehicles by being impaired and/or distracted can change a life in an instant. With the help of local, county and state agencies, as well as volunteers from THS and the SADD chapter, students simulated a drunk and distracted accident scenario. Students also attended a Think First assembly and saw first-hand the kinds of mental and physical issues people face due to accidents such as these. Thank you to everyone for helping educate our students to help keep them safe. #tongienation #usd464 #fccla #thinkfirst

Several members submitted LEO Projects which did exceptionally well. The chapter also received a state Stand Up award and recognition for the many hours of community service they have done this year. #tongienation #usd464 #fccla
