Occasionally we use text messaging to communicate with families. In order to receive text messages from the school, you must first opt-in.

Please see the flyer (English and Spanish) with information to ensure you have opted-in. Thank you!

Our school code is- FM429701

Please fill out a form for each student who wishes to participate. This for is for Mrs. Buckel and Mrs. Eakman to get an idea of how many students are interested. An official sign up will be sent out at a later date as well as more information and the chosen show.

We ask all families to keep in mind that putting on a production is a team effort. We understand that there may be an occasional rehearsal absence for illness, appointments, or other activities; however, consistent attendance will be important. The production cannot be successful without committed performers. You can email Mrs. Buckel at mbuckel@holyname.cc or Mrs. Eakman at mel.eakman@gmail.com with any questions.
