-Clarence Day

Happy New Week! We had a lot of activities on campus this past week. Thank you to everyone that came out for our Coffee with the Principal and PTA meeting. We want to give a Special Thank You to Mr. John Dahlander for coming and presenting on state funding & legislation at our PTA meeting.

This week, we will begin STAAR testing on our campus. It is a great week to focus on affirming our students. You may consider sharing an inspirational poem or a personally written affirmation. Each student's success contributes to the entire school's success. Let us all make them feel comfortable and confident as we embark on our first STAAR test.

Let's Go Dragons!!

About the Show

From the creators of Junie B. Jones The Musical, Dear Edwina JR. is a heartwarming musical about the joys of growing up. Written in a “show-within-a-show” format, Dear Edwina JR. is the perfect story for a new generation.

Dear Edwina JR. follows the adventures of plucky, advice-giver-extraordinaire, Edwina Spoonapple, as she directs the neighborhood kids in a series of buoyant production numbers for the latest edition of her weekly "Advice-a-Palooza.” Edwina and her friends share wisdom on everything from trying new foods to making new friends through clever, catchy and poignant songs.

Book and Lyrics by Marcy Heisler. Music by Zina Goldrich. Dear Edwina JR. is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
