Woodland High School celebrates return of Taste of Jazz fundraiser

WOODLAND — Woodland High School’s jazz choir and jazz band held their ninth annual Taste of Jazz fundraising event on March 24, an evening concert where attendees listened to live jazz performances while dining on desserts. Food was prepared by the school’s culinary arts students, and attendees took home handmade wooden souvenir boxes made by students taking the construction trades course, a new class offered this year in the Career and Technical Education department.

This year’s Taste of Jazz marked the return of the event after a two-year hiatus after COVID-19 health and safety guidelines in 2021 prevented it from taking place. The funds raised from the Taste of Jazz’s ticket sales go entirely to support the different student programs involved in putting on the event.

“These monies directly impact our floriculture, culinary arts and construction trades groups, offering our students the ability to compete in competitions, attend festivals and experience their respective art forms beyond the walls of the school,” choir teacher Brent LiaBraaten said. “Additionally, the night provides a showcase of some of the amazing things happening at Woodland High School; not only showing off the talent of our students, but also the passion our teaching staff has for our amazing kids.”
