Thank you to everyone who came out in support of the basketball games, and for the exciting return of the Pipe and Drum show! — About the Pipe & Drum performance: This school tradition, which began in 1950, showcases the talents of our students and celebrates the local ties to Scottish heritage. Weston-McEwen High School Vice Principal Morgan Rauch noted, “We are excited to have our current students perform our iconic halftime show again. This legacy connects our students to each of the generations over the past 70 years.” This year's show, built around the iconic song "Amazing Grace," is dedicated to our First Responders and the medical community who bravely serve the area. The show featured performances by our bagpipers, highland dancers, and a new section of pipers. #tigerscots #athenaweston
