"Wings of the Year" Design Contest

"Inspired by the vibrant colors of a La Crosse sunrise over the bluffs and river, this design reflects the diverse experiences and perspectives that shape our community. Just as a sunrise signals the start of a new day filled with possibilities, this design encourages students to embrace new opportunities and explore the world around them. The geometric pieces forming the wings symbolize the unique backgrounds that come together to create something greater. And like every piece of this design, each student is an essential part of the whole—they belong." - Chase Hendricks, 2025 Wings of the Year Winner
