Tahoma High School's We the People team placed seventh in the national finals in Washington D.C. The team coached by Gretchen Wulfing, finished in the Top 10 for the second consecutive year and had the highest finish in school history.
Tahoma competed
against teams from 45 other states and the District of Columbia. The teams
participate in simulated congressional hearings, in which the judges test the
students’ knowledge of the Constitution.
On the music front, three Tahoma High School vocalists and one instrumentalist
placed in the top three in their respective categories at the state solo and
ensemble music competition, held April 27 at Central Washington University. Tyler Johnson won the Tenor category, the first Tahoma

Riggs said. Katie Duffy placed second in the Soprano category and Elizabeth Zosel
placed third in the Mezzo-soprano category. Stephen Shin placed third in the
Euphonium category for instrumental music.
