*It’s a Wonderful Life is a fantastic play based on the classic holiday film by Frank Capra, adapted for the stage by James W. Rodgers. Come on out to celebrate these students' hard work and watch this story of magical joy and the endurance of the human spirit. Based on the holiday film, this play explores the plight of George Bailey as he faces financial and familial challenges on Christmas Eve. With the help of our all-knowing and kind-spirited Clara Oddbody (Angel Second-Class), George learns about the impact he’s had in his community, the true meaning of friendship, and just how important it is to reach out for help.

Attention Athletes and Parents of Athletes
Please refer to the following excerpt from our handbook regarding the Athletic Closet:

The Athletic Closet is located between the Media Center and room 127 in the High School Courtyard. The Athletic Closet is available for all student athletes currently in-season to store their athletic clothing and equipment that is needed that day after school. Student athletes are expected to use the shelves, with the floor space remaining open for oversized items. The athletes are expected to maintain an organized and safe space for all belongings.

The closet opens at 7:30 AM and is locked during the school day. The closet is opened prior to dismissal for games or at the end of the school day at 2:45 PM.”

A reminder that the Athletic Closet is not available during the school day. Books and PE clothes should not be stored in the Athletic Closet.
