On Friday, March 9th, the West Salem Visual Arts Classic team participated in the Regional Competition at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. This team of 12 High School students competed against 7 other area schools (Tomah, Cashton, Black River Falls, Viroqua, Onalaska, La Crosse Central, and La Crosse Logan).
The team created individual artwork, and also competed in 2 team-related categories-- the Art History Quiz Bowl and the Team Critical Thinking competition. Scores in the individual and team categories were tallied to determine the winner of the Regional Competition.
West Salem swept in the 2 team categories, earning first place ratings in both. Their individual artwork scores were also used to determine an overall champion. The West Salem High School VAC team was the overall champion, and will advance to the State Competition in April. This is the fourth year in a row that West Salem has won the Regional and advanced to the State Competition.
