ACHS senior Emma Grider made a strong call to action for more opportunities in the arts in Adair County at the March Chamber of Commerce meeting. Her passion for expanding the arts was heightened during her experience at the Governor's School for the Arts last summer. She said, "I want to make sure that every artist in Adair County has the opportunity to go forth and make great art; One day, I'd like to be able to came back home and watch a school play on a real stage instead of the high school cafeteria; I want to see just as many people at choir concerts or band competitions as there are at basketball games and I want to see students paintings displayed somewhere other than the school basement."
