In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we are collecting food donations for people and pets. With the help of our Alumni, we will be preparing 100 Thanksgiving baskets on November 19 to donate to those in need, both in our school and our local community.


All items donated should be nonperishable and either canned or boxed. The deadline to make your donation is next Tuesday, November 18. Donations can be dropped off at the Primary and Middle School or High School Offices.


We have provided a list of recommended items by grade level that will be collected. No donation is too small, and we will accept any items, even if you choose to donate outside of your grade level.


Let's give thanks for our many blessings and give back to our other local families this holiday season.

Bring Your Talents to the Stage

Callbacks (by invitation): Wednesday, December 3

3:30-5:30 p.m., Watson Family Theatre


Auditions will consist of a vocal 32 bar cut (about 45 seconds of music) and cold reads from the script. 


This is a chance to join a fun, fast-moving, and beloved musical with plenty of laughs and big personalities. Whether you're a seasoned performer or new to the stage — we want YOU to audition! Mark your calendars and get ready to bring this rock n'roll show to life!
