High School Theater Department presents:
Once Upon a Mattress
|
|
Many moons ago in a far-off place, Queen Aggravain decreed no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride. Princesses came from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none could pass the impossible tests given to them by the Queen. That is, until the “shy” swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, showed up. Would she be able to pass the Sensitivity Test, marry her prince and help Lady Larkin and Sir Harry to the altar? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic, and melodic, this rollicking spin on the classic tale The Princess and the Pea provides some side-splitting shenanigans. For, after all, a princess is a delicate thing.

Eighteen picked as Tomorrow's Leaders Today |
|
Eighteen Carl Junction seniors were selected by the Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce to participate in the 2021-22 class of Tomorrow’s Leaders Today. Selectees were chosen based on the completion of an application and interview. Forty-four students will represent the Class of 2022 out of applications from Joplin, McAuley, Carl Junction, Webb City, Carthage, College Heights Christian School, and Thomas Jefferson IDS.
The Tomorrow’s Leaders Today program provides high school seniors an opportunity to learn more about the area and the importance of community service to our future. Students interact with business and community leaders to identify and discuss local issues, leadership, and career opportunities.

Winter weather will soon be upon us. When deciding whether to close schools, several factors are taken into consideration, including the amount of snowfall, condition of residential and thoroughfare roads, temperature, and the ability to clear parking lots and sidewalks. We work closely with the weather service and our team members personally travel the roads before making a final decision.
If school is canceled or the arrival/dismissal time is affected, an announcement will be made through our communication system using phone, text, and email; postings on social media and cjr1.org, and our local television stations. To assure that you will receive notification, verify that your parent information is up to date in Parent Portal.
