Senior Spotlight: Mika Lee Boyer
Mika Lee Boyer is the daughter of Juaquita Thompson and the sister of Captolia Boyer and Zachary Vermillion. An active and determined student, she enjoys working with the fire department, taking EMT classes, and serving as a first responder.
Outside of school, Mika loves swimming, hunting, driving her truck, hanging out with friends, and shopping. One of her favorite high school memories is junior prom when Mr. Fears sang, and while it’s hard for her to pick just one favorite teacher, she appreciates them all.
The most important lesson Mika has learned in high school is to avoid drama because it gets you nowhere, and what she’ll miss most are her friends in the grades below her.
After graduation, Mika plans to complete her EMT certification and attend paramedic school. She hopes to be remembered as her own person, not someone others expect her to be.
Her favorite subject is English, and she also enjoys SoMo Tech auto collision. A fun fact: she’ll catch spiders but is afraid of ladybugs! Inspired most by her mom, who is caring, hardworking, and has taught her everything she knows, Mika leaves this advice to underclassmen:
“Don’t be afraid to chase your dreams and make the most of your opportunities.”
Next on her travel list is Atlanta, Georgia, and if she could eat one meal forever, it would be a cheeseburger and french fries.

Huge congratulations to Lexi Lindsey for officially breaking the Missouri state record with 4,000 career assists!
This incredible milestone is a true testament to Lexi’s time, talent, and hard work both on and off the court. Reaching 4,000 assists doesn’t happen overnight, it takes years of dedication, discipline, and love for the game. Lexi would be the first to say, this record isn’t hers alone. Every assist requires a teammate to finish the play, and it’s the teamwork, trust, and chemistry of the entire Winona Volleyball program that made this moment possible. We’re so proud of Lexi for setting a new standard in Missouri volleyball history and for representing Winona High School with excellence, leadership, and heart. Congratulations, Lexi, you’ve made history and inspired the next generation of Wildcats!
