Dear Maplewood Middle School Community,
You see the transformation that the arts have on young people. It changes their lives for the better.
-Actress Kerry Washington
On behalf of the Maplewood Middle School Leadership Team, I’d like to congratulate the cast, crew, directors and advisors of Spongebob The Musical! We are so grateful that our children have the opportunity to be creative, to express themselves, and to build lasting friendships. It has been a joy to watch the students work so hard and have so much fun preparing for this show. Their artistic gifts and their voices have filled our hallways with joy. The last two years have taught us to appreciate being together in spaces like this. Truly, as our school theme this year states, we are better together. We thank the faculty advisor team for beginning what we hope is a new tradition at MMS–a school day showcase with a scene from the musical! This offered the cast the chance to perform for the entire school! Ms. Bradshaw, Mr. Kessler, Ms. Kleinwaks, and Mr. Palmgren–- you are an all-star team and we thank you for your great work with our kids!
Warm Regards,
Dara Crocker Gronau
