The 2010 Marg Johansen award goes to Tessa Flores of McMinnville High School in recognition of her accomplishments in the performing arts. Tessa's school drama career began in middle school and continued throughout her high school years. Her talent and dedication to her chosen art earned her exceedingly high praise from her teachers and directors. Tessa plans to pursue a bachelor’s degree in fine arts at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles.
