We are doing portfolio reviews!! So nice to see what our students are doing in all their classes. The C2 students are discussing their chosen “path” with us (the lighting faculty) and it is uplifting to share in their excitement for the future.

We continue to work on next year’s season. Drama has decided what shows they will do and we should be announcing that soon. Dance is working on their season and it is, once again, very exciting to be thinking forward!

It’s been an exciting year of coming change. New static units, new LED strips, new movers, new consoles and new rigging. All to further enhance our learning opportunities here at the school.

Our Lady of 121st Street is coming together! Looking forward to how this production goes as the first show in the Catawba in a long…time. So far, no problems with the system other than some configuration oddities.

Also, some shows from the Fall have started streaming. I hope you get a chance to see them. They are examples of how we pivoted to the situation and got to work.

Additionally we are working on next year hard, putting together show titles and structuring the season. Drama is almost all set, and Dance is getting a lot lined up. It is all very exciting! Looking forward to celebrating the rest of this year and getting next year started!

LOL. You can tell school started. I haven’t posted anything in a while! All I can say is that we are moving along. Its not ideal, but everyone is doing their best and we are having classes and maybe even having some fun!

So, I’m at Boy Scout Camp with my son. It is really great to be ‘away’ for a little bit. I am anxious to work on classes and get rolling with the term, but it is very nice to be outside and doing things that are not connected to the Internet….99% of the time. We have a single WiFi service that I can use for about 30 minutes a day or so. I’m trying to keep up with email, but this is my ‘time off’ as it were.

I’m looking forward to getting back at it full steam this Monday!
