An optional rehearsal has been added on our Friday, March 4th half-day of school for students. Students staying for the rehearsal should email Ms. K to let her know they will be staying for it and they should bring a lunch/drink.  This was one of our FAVORITE rehearsal days last year!

Also, please review carefully the times for the Sunday rehearsals.

Students participating in Spring sports, please remember per your play production contract and the school handbook regarding participation in play and spring sports, you go to your first prior commitment before your second commitment, except for Spring sports tryout days which are excused. (Meaning play first, then Spring sports).

On days which you are not called for play practice, you go to your Spring sport.  At Ms. K's discretion, you may dress out for Soccer or Track and Field and participate during rehearsal when she or Mr. Michek may not need you for an extended period of time in a rehearsal. Please communicate directly with Ms, K about this.
