LAST CHANCE TO SEE ROMEO & JULIET!

This play is a timeless tragedy, penned in the early stages of Shakespeare’s career. Unfolding in Verona, Italy, Romeo & Juliet tells the tale of two young lovers from feuding families, the Montagues and the Capulets. Romeo and Juliet’s passionate love defies the social and familial boundaries that seek to keep them apart. Their ill-fated romance leads to a series of tragic events, culminating in the untimely deaths of the titular characters. Against the backdrop of intense familial strife, the play explores themes of love, fate, and the consequences of unchecked hatred. 

NOTE: Due to its tragic content and depiction of violence, this show is not recommended for children under 13+.

Romeo & Juliet Performances:

• Friday, Nov. 21st @ 3:45 & 7:30 PM
• Saturday, November 22nd @ 7 PM

GIVING TUESDAY 2025!

As we approach Giving Tuesday, we are excited to share this year’s special project that will directly benefit every student on our campus. On Tuesday, December 2, our goal is to raise funds to transform the unused westside gym courtyard area into a dynamic outdoor learning space! We want another location where students can gather, collaborate, read, and learn in the fresh air.

To make this vision a reality, we have created three giving tiers based on the total amount raised by our community. Each tier unlocks a new level of improvement to the Gym Courtyard, allowing families to clearly see how your generosity directly impacts our school.

GIVING TUESDAY PROJECT: 

WESTSIDE GYM COURTYARD LEARNING SPACE

TIERS OF SUPPORT:

Tier 1 – Courtyard Turf Installation = Goal: $15,000

Reaching this goal will allow us to install professional-grade turf to create a comfortable, low-maintenance surface for classes, clubs, and student gatherings.

Tier 2 – Outdoor Learning Furniture + Turf = Goal: $20,000

If we reach this tier, we will add heavy-duty, weather-resistant picnic tables to create flexible spaces for students & teachers to gather, collaborate, and enjoy lunch or outdoor learning opportunities.

Tier 3 – Premium Courtyard Seating + Tier 1 & 2 = Goal: $42,000

Reaching this goal will allow us to enhance the space with heavy-duty round tables featuring umbrellas and swivel chairs, that match the high-quality furnishing on the east side of the Gym Courtyard.

Every contribution brings us one step closer to giving our students a beautiful, functional space to learn and grow. We are grateful for the generosity and commitment of our Horizon Honors community and for all you do to support our school.
