- This year's leadership (J McCue, Grace Crossett, Trevor Scott, Nessa Nyholm, Makenzie Hendren, and Darron Kastner) for literally jumping in whenever and wherever needed
- All parents who contributed food and drinks for our students
- Faculty and staff for always supporting us throughout each musical
END NOTES
I am extremely proud of this production and the students, parents, and staff involved. The quality of the cast and stage/ tech crews are outstanding. A truly successful production, however, involves more than what is presented on stage. It should not only be an artistic learning experience, but a personal one as well. I'm especially proud of the cooperation, the mutual respect, the level of commitment, and the teamwork that has been demonstrated by everyone involved in this production. These students have put egos aside and discovered that whether they had one or fifty lines or were on or off stage, everyone shares equally in the pride and success of such an accomplishment.
I would like to extend my gratitude and thanks to our faculty, staff, and parents for their continued support.
To my seniors: it's always bittersweet for me watching the final performance. I'm proud of you and have worked with many of you for four years--it's hard to see you go.
