Partial Schedule of Practice Times for

“Into the Woods”

    We are thrilled that so many fourth and fifth graders have tried out for the play this year. It will be so much fun. Along with that fun comes hard work and commitment. We are all relying on each other to be on time for practices and to commit to dress rehearsals and the plays. If, for a very important reason, you need to miss a practice, you must let us know in advance. The practice days will be on Wednesday afternoons from 4:00-5:00 and on Friday mornings from 8:00-9:10. These practices will begin the week of October 30th and will continue into mid-March. In March we will crank things up a bit.
