This Friday, 1/16, our entire school will attend the Springtown High School performance of Cinderella. We are excited for our students not only to enjoy the performance, but also to visit Springtown High Schoolโ€”the campus many of them will attend in the future. This experience gives our students a firsthand look at the incredible talent of Springtown ISD students. Who knowsโ€”maybe some of our Reno students will be inspired to join theatre one day!

The cost for the performance is $2, and the payment link is included below for easy access. Please submit payment as soon as possible.

๐Ÿ”— Payment Link:
https://springtownisd.revtrak.net/fine-arts/shs-fine-arts/shs-musical/#/v/shs-musical-campus-performances

Please note, this performance is a special school-only showing. Due to the large number of students and staff attending, there will not be space available for parents or additional guests in the auditorium.

Families who would still like to enjoy the show are welcome to attend one of the public performances, which are listed at the bottom of the flyer.

๐Ÿฐโœจ ! โœจ๐Ÿ›๏ธ Our students traveled back to Medieval Times! While 2nd graders are learning about Ancient Greece ๐Ÿ“š, the Medieval era shows how those ideas continued to grow and changeโ€”from architecture to stories to ways of thinking. ๐Ÿ›๏ธโžก๏ธ๐Ÿฐ

This background knowledge will also help students understand the role of a knight in their skills book this year, and later in 4th grade during the Medieval unit in RLA. โš”๏ธ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

By exploring Medieval Times firsthand, students got to see, touch, and experience history in a way that connects to what they are learning in the classroom. Plus, they had a TON of fun! ๐ŸŽจ

Learning history isnโ€™t just about readingโ€”itโ€™s about walking through it! ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ
