FAIRBANKS—Two adults and a juvenile could soon be facing charges for the theft and vandalism last month at Two Rivers Elementary School.

Alaska State Troopers reported on Sunday that investigators had contacted three people — two 18-year-olds and a 14-year-old, all from Two Rivers — and that charges of burglary, theft and criminal mischief have been forwarded to the Fairbanks District Attorney's Office and the Department of Juvenile Justice.

Student musicians from throughout the district shined brightly this school year at the Alaska School Activities Association (ASAA) Solo and Ensemble Music Festival on May 6-7 in Anchorage. At the conclusion of the festival, students had the opportunity to be selected for the prestigious Command Performance Concert. This year, district students represented over 25% of the participants chosen for the esteemed concert.
