Pritzlaff placed second in the UIL Congress Meet and will be advancing to the next round at the Texas State Capitol in January. “The first kind of debate that I got into when I first joined the Speech and Debate team was Congress,” Pritzlaff said. “So, making it to state my senior year is kind of a full circle for me, and owning my speech skills, learning this kind of thing, and having the opportunity and experience to debate all of these different ideas [with] these different people has been really cool.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/UIL-Congress-Winners-900x599.jpg)
![Poetry club members sit down, and write words to plan a poem to write. During meetings, members have time to work on their work and share it with other members, in order to improve their work.“I believe many students write poetry, as I did as a young person, and they have no one to share it with,” club sponsor and English teacher Ms. Iskra said. “Poetry Club is an opportunity for students to meet other people who write poetry and share their own work in a supportive setting. [The club] is an opportunity for students who love and perhaps write poetry to share it with other interested students. We also seek to improve and promote the craft of poetry composition through practice and performance.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/poetry-900x675.jpg)

This was the clubs first fundraiser, and they raised a total of $1,750 for the Make A Wish Foundation. I was shocked at how much money [we] raised from the bake sale, Partridge said. Just knowing that we raised that much money and that [the team] was willing to do this made me really excited, and I was so grateful that all these people [donated].](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/IMG_4369.jpg)

On Nov. 30, the varsity girls won their non-conference, home game against Waco University 59-29, adding to their overall 17-0 ranking but not contributing to district. “I feel like we’ve had a pretty tough schedule and they are all really good teams that we’ve played,” Maul said. “If anything the focus is more real [this year]. We still have something to prove and so we’ve been more focused and more determined because we know that we’re not just satisfied with winning one state championship, we have bigger goals in mind.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/anthonywarticle.jpg)
![Looking to the side, senior Sydney Poulsen extends her leg while en pointe at the Celebrities holiday show on Dec. 13. This performance was the first time Poulsen had performed while en pointe in two years. It was fun to be able to perform en pointe again,” Poulsen said. “I also loved getting to wear my old tutu because they are super pretty. It was definitely difficult to perform because I had a tiny piece of marley and I [couldnt] travel as far as I normally would. Overall though, the variation went super well and I felt strong on pointe.](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/1_Sydney-Poulsen_by-Piper-Hernandez.jpg)
