From Mr. Collins
I am at a loss for words for how proud I am of all of you. The bravery you have shown to step outside of the preconceived notions for that was possible for you is on the level of superhero. I told you that there was greatness inside of you during rehearsals and you showed it, more than even I knew was there. Thank you for pushing me to do the first musical in the history of Lee V Pollard High School. Your time here has forever changed the history and the future of theatre at LPHS. Thank you for trusting Mr. Lopez and I with this production and for all the hours after school and on the weekend you sacrificed to make this show happen.
From Mr. Lopez
All of you did an incredible job preparing for this historic event for our wonderful high school. I applaud you all for your hard work in practicing memorizing your script lines, listening and singing your songs over and over, and your countless extra hours before, during and after-school working with Mr. Collins and myself helping you be performance ready to the best of your abilities. It is witnessing your commitment and dedication in putting our first LVPHS musical production which reminds me why I love being a music educator at LVPHS. It warms my heart and brings me so much joy to see you all grow as performers and human beings.
This show would not have been possible without the patience and hard work of the following people:
- Dr. Wallace and the Admin Team of Pollard High School
- Mrs. Arzu
- Michelle Usher, Coordinator Visual & Performing Arts
- Sophia Chriest and the purchasing department of CNUSD
- Our amazing custodial and security team
- Mrs. Pulido and her ASB students for providing refreshments for the night of the show
- The staff at Pollard who were patient with us during the planning and rehearsals of this production.
- Last and not least, all the parents and siblings trusted us with their kids and drove back and forth to rehearsals.
