Change War Declared for Tomorrow's TMP-M vs. Trego Basketball Game
The TMP-Marian vs. Trego-WaKeeney basketball game will include a friendly competition to see which school's fans can come up with the most change to benefit the Ellis County and Trego County Legacy Funds. These funds are used to grant money to schools and other organizations in the county.
So check your seat cushions and vehicle floorboards for loose change before coming to the basketball game at TMP-Marian tomorrow. Varsity girls start at 6 p.m. followed by the varsity boys. Go Monarchs!
Congratulations to TMP-M Dane G. Hansen Scholarship Interviewees
TMP-Marian seniors have a strong track record with the Hansen Scholarship program. Typically 20% or more of the senior class qualifies for the interview with about half subsequently winning a scholarship. Your odds of earning scholarships are very good if you complete the Hays Catholic Schools curriculum!
This year's interviewees, who represent 24% of the senior class, are (as pictured L to R) Will Robinson, Lucas Hess, Haley Stecklein, Caleb Marintzer, (bottom row) Gordon Schroeder, Jake Brady, Breanna Seiler, and Brooke Koenigsman. The school will further prepare candidates by providing mock interviews leading up to the Feb. 12 interview date.
God Bless and Good luck Monarchs!
