FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK
Our choirs held livestreamed “mini concerts” throughout the day yesterday.

Our choir director, Sara Carroll, in her usual inimitable style, figured out how to work through all of the pandemic protocols for vocal courses and led her groups in concert in our front entry, in our commons, and in the choir classroom. 

I was able to sneak out and attend at least a few moments of each performance and two pieces really resonated.
One was an arrangement of a Ben Folds song called “The Luckiest.”

It has beautiful lyrics about realizing how very, very fortunate we all are to be here and now, experiencing the love of people in our lives, and that even the mistakes and missteps made along the way can be looked on as fortunate because they got us to this precise moment of “extraordinary ordinary” living.

(The song was also used to great effect in the film “About Time” – here’s the link to final montage in the film containing the song because I neglected to record our choir singing it. Darn it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9rvhmUhPnA)

The second song is one that was based on Julian of Norwich’s famous quote, “And all will be well and all will be well and all manner of things will be well.”

That song, too, reminds listeners to pause and take heart in the message that despite trouble and challenge, we can be grateful for all the lovingkindness that truly is abundant in the world if we train ourselves to see it.

Such great choices for our Director to offer to students during these nutty days.

I loved that the selections were reassuring and inspiring and positive and I so hope that their messages will reside in the hearts of our musicians in the days ahead.

Teachers always do such an amazing job at figuring out how to ensure that content in their classes connects with students positively and relevantly and they have never done so with more vigor than now.

(Our math department lead has created a blog about underrepresented stars of the math and engineering world so that students can “see themselves” in the lives of major contributors to the subject – it’s awesome and so great for kids: https://www.scaffoldedmath.com/2020/10/mathematicians-look-like-all-of-us.html)

I’m inspired by the staff here at school and definitely feel like “The Luckiest” working for them.

Theatre Summer Camp: Spokane Valley Theatre Summer theatre camps for students in grades 7-12 are open! Spend a bit of your time on stage this summer with our camps for middle and high school students:

BACKSTORY CAMP | July 19-22:
  • Without singing a note, this week long camp will focus on the parts in-between musical numbers; the dialogue. Students will create their character’s backstory to elevate their skills as a musical theatre actor. Students will work with scene partners to perform scenes from popular musicals such as The Lion King, Legally Blonde, Into the Woods, The Prom, Hello, Dolly! and The Wizard of Oz.

DECODING THE SCRIPT CAMP | July 26-29:
  • In this exciting camp, students will be cast into one of six 10 minute plays to be performed at the end of the week! Each script tactfully explores the theme of bullying. Students gain an understanding of how their unique experiences can be used onstage to connect to their character’s circumstances, even if they haven’t had the same experience. Specific skills learned include pacing in a scene, detail to language and word choice, confidence in cold reading (seeing a scene for the first time), and detecting a character’s motive through their intentions. This is a camp NOT to miss!

Both camps are perfect for all experience levels and are instructed by highly energized drama teacher Haliey Weber. Only a handful of spots remain for each camp, so we encourage you to register for your spot quickly! Just visit www.svsummertheatre.com, click the “Camp” tab and then “Register for Camp.” Questions? Email SVST Production Coordinator Collin Pittmann: collin@svsummertheatre.com We truly hope to see YOU at camp this summer!

End of the Year Laptop Check-In: At the end of the school year, we will be collecting ALL student laptops in order to update them for next year. We will provide more information soon about the laptop and textbook return process.

For now, if your SPS provided laptop has any damage, we are asking that you bring it in and we will replace it with a new one so that our tech department can get a head start on fixing computers for next year. The tech department will assess the damage and contact you if there are issues resulting in a fee. You can see Mrs. Rasmussen in the front hall office (in front of the auditorium) to swap out your laptop and she can give you more information on the process.
  • June 14-17 - Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors turn in district laptops in English classes

Volunteer Opportunity: Back by popular demand, the LC Environmental Club will be running their Green Bluff Harvest program again this year (for details see https://sites.google.com/site/yes350org/project-database/from-u-pick-to-grab-go). If you are an LC student willing to volunteer a few hours per week to pick seasonal fruit for a local food bank, or a parent interested in ordering fruit and vegetables from our Green Bluff farmers, please email Ali Groza at  yes350info@gmail.com or call her at (509) 405-1885 and she will add you to our email list.  Please include your name, phone number and details about how you would like to participate. We will send out information every week with available fruit varieties and cost - you can order as much or as little as you want, there is no fixed commitment. Orders will be distributed at the Hart Field LC concession stand. Last year we picked cherries, peaches, apricots, Italian plums, pears, apples, pumpkins, fresh garlic, beets and carrots - there's always something new! Our program will begin in July once the cherries are ripe, and run through the end of October. Service hours certificates will be given out every week to participating volunteers. 
Thank you for supporting our local farmers and food banks!
