    Jessica Taylor is a senior at BV and has always be Jessica Taylor is a senior at BV and has always been a student-athlete. For a total of 12 years she has been involved in gymnastics with nine of those years being on a competitive team. Through her local gym, Diamond Gymnastics, she has met lifelong friends and learned multiple life lessons she would not have gained if she was not a gymnast. “I’ve learned a lot about dedication and hard work,” Taylor said. “I might have to work a little harder at things that don’t come as easy to me, but at the end of the day it only makes me stronger.” Taylor has recently committed to the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Gymnastics team to further her dedication and love to this sport. “Gymnastics has also taught me how to be supportive, encouraging and have empathy for others,” Taylor said. “I can’t imagine what my life would be like without gymnastics.”
    Recently choir students performed their second ann Recently choir students performed their second annual cabaret, however elements of this show is a little different than the previous event. Senior directors Ann Vasa, Erika Kolseth, Ann Heitman (slide 5) and Jonah Kahn had to make modifications such as wearing BV district-approved masks, choreographed social distancing, and cleaning every mic after use due to the coronavirus. “It was actually fun [despite] having to adjust the way we would normally do things because of COVID,” Heitman said. Not only were changes made for health purposes, but this year’s cabaret displayed a wider array of show-tunes. Junior Hadley Way (slide 1), holds her hair up straight while rapping “Cabinet #2”. “In choir, we normally sing classical music or Broadway songs,” Way said. “Being able to rap Hamilton and portray Lin Manuel’s character on the stage brought out a different side of performing that makes me engage the audience and have fun rather than worry about the right notes.” With a less restrictive shift in health protocols, cabaret was able to perform in the PAC with 50% capacity. “It was the first show the upperclassmen got to be a part of,” Heitman said. “It was so different than anything else we’ve done before which I think made it memorable and a fun experience.”
