The WHOW Morning Show's High School Road Tour stopped in Heyworth Friday to hear from school leaders and students.

Principal April Hicklin touted the district's opportunities for its students. One of the many things they offer is dual-credit courses. She says this not only saves families money, it gives those students a chance to earn college credits in the halls of their high school.

Kate Pickett is the President of the Key Club and she explains a lot of what the Key Club does at Heyworth High School is give back. They've already had a busy first semester and have plenty to look forward to in the second semester.

Jacob Hartwig is the student council president and told Regional Radio one of the things they went all in on this year was a December Winterfest event that was a huge success. That has been the highlight of a busy year for the student council.

Heyworth High School saw a very successful fall sports season, highlighted by its football team's first playoff appearance in nearly a decade. Assistant Principal Nathan Lawlar credits athletic director Nate Albaugh for his dedication to finding good coaches to lead its programs. Additionally, Albaugh has turned around the physical education department.

Lawlar and Hicklin both praised the district's facility addition which has created a great atmosphere for athletics in the district.
