![Blending harmonies with dynamic control, senior Spencer Rahm takes the stage as part of the jazz choir's spring performance. Jazz Coffee House took place on April 22, marking the culmination of months of preparation by West High’s musicians. “To me, [choir] is an opportunity every day to get to sing with my friends and work on our songs that we have concerts for. [Seeing] the results after working together with people is really rewarding. Jazz Coffee House concert was a reflection and a result of all the hard work we've put in the last three months,” Rahm said.](https://pwestpathfinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/DSC_0214-3-1200x800.jpg)

![“I’m really enjoying my band classes. I'm taking both Concert and Jazz Band. I'm really having fun playing in both of those and having that community. I am in marching band and so having been able to meet people before the school year and go around the school and meet actually a couple of my teachers. It was just kind of special and nice to be able to form those relationships and be able to know who I can truly come to if I need to. I guess [people who inspire me are] the upperclassmen who I'm friends with. Just being able to see them work through like their own work and talk about the classes that they're taking and seeing them do their work whenever they can. I guess it's one of my big motivators because it kind of gives me a look into what I'll be expecting over my next four years, and it just gives me a bit of a view." - Rowan Ravenscraft, 9](https://pwestpathfinder.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Rowen-Ravenscraft-grade-9-1200x800.jpg)
