Welcome back to another action-filled week on the “Yellow Brick Road”. Coming off of a three-day weekend with another one coming up, it is easy to enjoy this time of year.
To start will be our final preview for the Drama Club’s production of The Wizard of Oz. This week, the Cast will take center stage.
Drama Club Director Mrs. Kimberly Cipriani loves watching the Cast grow into their characters. With her excitement, though, comes the nerves with finalizing everything before opening night.
“Everyone pretty much knows everything, but putting everything (Cast, Pit, and Crew) together and keeping everything on track is the hardest part. Also, trying to have everyone on the same page and doing what they need to do to match up with everything else is even harder. It is pretty much all coming along, though. I am excited to get these students on stage,” stated Cipriani.
The Drama Club performed The Wiz years ago, but there was different music and different dialogue. This year’s production is new, but all involved are up for the challenge.
One of the students who is ready is senior Miley Kegley. She has been in the cast for one year, and her role in this year’s production is Professor Marvel/Oz.
“I love the people in this year’s musical because it is fun being around like-minded people, and it makes for a fun environment,” exclaimed Kegley.
Next Thursday, it begins. Come on out and show your support for all of those involved and for all of their hard work. “Break a leg!”
Moving on from The Wizard of Oz, the Winter Sports Banquet is tomorrow. It starts at 5:45 and will be held in the main gym. Congratulations to all athletes who earned awards.
Next, a friendly reminder that the end of the third quarter is quickly approaching. The quarter ends this week on Thursday, March 13. Make sure your grades are as high as they can be and that all assignments are turned in. No regrets!
Remember, there is no school on this Friday, March 14. Make sure to shut off your alarms and enjoy the second-consecutive, three-day weekend.
Finally, here is the schedule for the remainder of March:
- March 12: Winter Sports Banquet
- March 13: End of Third Quarter
- March 14: No School / Teacher Records Day
- March 17: Start of Fourth Quarter
- March 20-22: Drama Club’s Production of The Wizard of Oz

Have a great and productive week, fellow Hurricanes!
