See the stars best in the sixth -- second to last -- video. That's my favorite.

Yeah, I think I missed the video of you trying the Wave. Hmmm ... wondered why that wasn't online.

I just saw some students using their Waves downtown going past the office of the Independent. I had a chance to try them out when the students were using them at school the other day, and it was a lot of fun. I was awful at it, though.

Cole competes in the creative expression category, Meyer in the original oratory category, and LaMoore in the great speeches category. Meyer and LaMoore spoke during last night’s school board meeting, and they did a great job.

The tournament is Friday in South Saint Paul.

This is terrific! It is a real big deal to go to State Speech - just as big a deal as state volleyball or basketball, just a different kind of competition. These students really have to excel in order to compete at this elite level. In what categories are they competing? It would be fun to know this because Speech has about 13 different categories in which students can compete. They may be reciting great speeches, poetry or prose or retelling stories drawn from a hat, or preparing an argument on a topic. When is the State Speech tournament? Congrats to Ashley, Katy and Nick!

Video highlight: The first video has only one highlight -- it's ultra-slowness. But we're trying.

Community Education is the gem of the school district! From ECFE to 55 Alive driving, Community ed. is a great asset to the Jordan community.

I thought there was a pretty good size crowd at Celebrate Jordan yesterday, and I had some nice conversations with a number of people. Community Education did a nice job of organizing this year’s event.

Right now, the students are probably getting ready for their performance, and they’ve got an afternoon of partly cloudy skies with a high of 85 degrees coming up. I love that today in Jordan is bright, sunny and clear, but where’s my 85 degree day?

Both directors said they chose songs that their students had already done and done well, and it really showed at their send-off concert. The groups both sounded great.
