Over 100 Students Auditioned!

Almost 120 students auditioned for the roles in our upcoming production of the Wizard of Oz. Forty-four students were able to be cast in on-stage roles and are in the process of being notified of their parts and rehearsal schedule, which is also posted on this site. All other children will be asked to help with the play in March. Congratulations to every single child who took part in the process. We are all so proud of you!!!!

Congratulations to each and every child who tried out for the Wizard of Oz tonight. Each one should be extremely proud of their accomplishment! It takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there for a role and each child did EXTREMELY well! Parents will be notified when their child needs to next come to the school for their part in the play, whether for a speaking role, munchkin role and behind the scenes role. Great Job Everyone!
