HS Musical Information
The HS ASA Musical this year is “Seussical the Musical”.
Seussical is a family friendly and community building show full of catchy songs, recognizable characters, and deeper themes masquerading as children’s entertainment. At a tight one hour, it’s the perfect show for the entire family.
I’m sending you info in advance just to see if there is something you might want to connect in your class or division.
First off, I do hope you will join us…and bring your kids….and encourage your classes to attend…we’d love to see you in the audience.
Secondly, if you have a chance to read a Seuss story in your classes they may be able to see the characters come to life on stage!
Third, if you can think of any interesting collaborations, I’d love to hear them! As the costumes get built and the songs get rehearsed and the choreography gets polished…maybe a few Seussical the Musical pop-ups can happen around the ES or MS. Who knows?
The show will run February 13, 14, 15
As we get closer to show time, I will definitely make sure the word gets out.

Brag Board
The Brag Board is here to celebrate awesome ideas and helpful resources. Share a link from a colleague, something cool you’ve found, or anything you think could benefit others.
Last week Mary’s class was doing a wonderful reflection on their field trip connected to their Super Unit. The students were able to explain the physical pain some people feel from having to carry water for kilometers. They made the connection to the characters in the book they are reading as well and were able to “feel what they feel” as one student put it.
