Wellington ISD

The results are in and our Rocket art students soared at the VASE competition in Amarillo today! All six Wellington High School pieces advanced to the area round, representing the outstanding work of Jacy Lampe, Jasmin Moreno, Elli Ouellette (2 pieces), Bailey Page, and Rilynn Southerland. Out of those six area qualifiers, four pieces advanced to the STATE competition! Elli Ouellette had both of her pieces advance, along with the incredible work of Jasmin Moreno and Rilynn Southerland. These talented students will represent Wellington High School at the state VASE competition in San Marcos at the end of April. We are incredibly proud of all of our Rocket art students and their hard work, creativity, and dedication. A huge shout out to the best art teacher around, Marnie Kane, for inspiring and guiding our students to this level of excellence. The Rockets continue to soar in every arena—academics, athletics, and the arts! 🚀🏅🎨

Good luck to all our VASE girls competing in Amarillo today. Their work is amazing! Check back later for results! 🚀🖼️🎨
