MILTON THEATRE BRINGS HOME MULTIPLE AWARDS AT GEORGIA THEATRE CONFERENCE!
Congratulations to the cast, crew, and directors (David Hopkins and Sim Jones) of "CRUSH" for winning multiple awards and receiving all SUPERIOR RATINGS at Georgia Theatre Conference (GTC) this past weekend in Americus, Georgia. Milton won for both LEADING ACTRESS awards (Sarah Charles Lewis, freshman and Sammy Azua, sophomore), ALL-STAR CAST (Lisa O'Brien, senior and Parker Mitchell, freshman) and TECH COSTUME QUICK CHANGE (Carly Foskey, senior). They were also given a nice shout-out for COSTUMES!
This show served as half of the company members' first Milton production of the season (SHENANDOAH up next...Oct 23-24, 7:00PM). During the GTC adjudication, judges commented on the outstanding tech crew, excellent choreography (Olivia Owens, senior), exceptional vocals and succeeding in the execution of an emotionally powerful show! Another component of GTC is the opportunity to audition for thirteen colleges. Three of our senior actors participated in this (Addi Bendall, Lisa O'Brien and Blake Kerzie) and each was selected by nearly all of the schools doing screenings to return for callbacks. It was a great weekend for Milton!
CROSS COUNTRY
Milton's Girl's & Boys' Varsity Cross Country teams placed 3rd and 5th respectively to qualify for the Georgia State Class 7A Meet to be held November 2nd in Carrollton, GA.
VARSITY GIRLS
The Lady Eagles bested 9 schools and qualified for the state championship meet for the 9th time in the last 10 years! Senior Nyah Hernandez (3rd-18:54) again led the Lady Eagles & was in a tight battle for runner-up honors most of the contest. Freshman Annalise Crow (10th-19:26) produced a 13-second personal best while individually qualifying for the state meet! Junior Audrey Nichols (18th-19:44) ran an all-time best and was followed closely by senior co-captain Abby Rindt (21st-19:47) to give Milton the edge and with the big personal best of junior Clare Petkash (30th-20:09), the Lady Eagles are once again headed to the state championship! Big races from sophomore Jessica Albregts (42nd-20:44) and senior Ella Langley (43rd-20:49) helped Milton secure the 3rd place spot.
VARSITY BOYS
Milton (5th-140 pts) qualified for the state meet for the 10th-straight year while besting 7 schools in the Area Championship meet. Junior Hayden Marshall (8th-16:09) ran in the front group of the race the entire way while running his 2nd best performance. Senior co-captain Spencer Watry (18th-16:30) gave Milton a strong 1-2 with junior Jack Petkash (25th-16:42) running an all-time best solidifying Milton's top-finishers. Senior co-captain Joe Pick (40th-17:06) moved steadily through the field and brought along junior Connor Brunson (49th-17:24) and fellow senior captain Alex Braswell (52nd-17:26) in a big personal best! Sophomore Dylan Bowden (54th-17:33) closed out the Eagles in also a personal best performance.

FCS CALENDAR UPDATE
Fulton County Schools has updated the calendar for the 2019-20 school year.
Fulton County School Board approved making April 21, 2020, and May 19, 2020, "
Digital Learning Days
" for students while maintaining them as regular work days for employees. A Digital Learning Day is an opportunity for students to engage in off-site learning instead of attending school.
Since April 21 and May 19 are state-wide election days, there is high-volume participation of the public at polling stations located in our schools, and this increases the potential for security concerns. By utilizing digital learning activities, students will be able to maintain their focus on instruction even though they are not on campus. This also allows staff the opportunity to participate in high-quality professional development to deepen their knowledge and skills.
Here is a summary of the recent calendar adjustments:
- March 13, 2020 remains a teacher workday.
- March 24, 2020 (GA Presidential primary election) will be a teacher workday.
- April 21, 2020 (state-wide election) will be a student Digital Learning Day and a teacher professional development day.
- May 19, 2020 (state-wide election) will be a student Digital Learning Day and a teacher professional development day.
Thank you for your continued support and flexibility.
