Taylorville Junior High School's 7th and 8th grade band students performed during Saturday’s Twilight Christmas Parade. The students added lights to their instruments, around their necks, and around Mrs. Ninmer's “conducting arms." They performed “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow.”
Mrs. Ninmer commented that this was the 7th and 8th grade students' first parade and they sounded terrific!

Brad Hurtig--"Find a Way" Assembly
Brad shared how losing both of his hands in an industrial accident changed the way he views life and that when challenges inevitably occur, you have a choice to make. One can choose to be defined by them, or overcome adversity and adapt. Great message for our TJHS kiddos!!!
