ELISE HOLCOMB
When Elise came to Roosevelt High School as a freshman, she says she didn’t have any friends. That caused her freshman year to start out pretty rough, but it got better all because, "my mom made me join freshman chorus. I told her I didn’t sing, but she convinced me to join so I could make friends." Well, it worked and throughout high school Elise participated in Freshman chorus, Mixed Chorus, First Ladies, Concert Choir, and of course, Executive Suite.
Outside of choir, Elise was also a long jumper, triple jumper, sideline cheerleader, actress, Drama Council historian, National Honor Society member, Link Crew member, a "stickman," student council representative, talent show emcee, dance captain, Girls' State representative, and your typical Roosevelt Rough Rider. She was also awarded the Outstanding Performer Award, All State Cheer Award, track medals, and a Regents Scholar Award.
Today, Elise is a freshman in college at South Dakota State University. She recently pledged Chi Omega and her major is Early Childhood Education/Elementary Education with the goal of becoming an elementary teacher someday.
