On May 4, five Wentzville students were selected to join the Missouri Fine Art Academy (MFAA), a three week fine art program, which will be held June 4 through the 24 at Missouri state University. It is a residential program and students are to live at the campus and focus on artistic potential and cultivate their leadership skills. Students attending this program have the chance to enhance their skills in the fine arts including dance, music, theater, writing, and the visual arts. It is also a great opportunity to broaden their horizon and explore the possibility of their future.

Four of the five students are from Timberland High School including Sydney Kissel, Diana Ovchar, Drew Schulz and Isabelle Stewart. The last student, from Holt High School, is none other than Simon Osler. Chosen out of 115 students, Osler is the only Holt student chosen to participate and has the huge responsibility of representing Holt students. Have fun and good luck, Simon.
