Pick up...

Dear parents!

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we moved through our pick-up line yesterday. As we go through this process it will get smoother and quicker. Be mindful as you look at the rehearsal schedule how many "scenes" are being called. Full Cast rehearsals always take the longest at pickup.
A reminder of the pickup rules:

  • Please pull up to the farthest cone if you are the first person in line.
  • Please do not wave to your children to come to your car. I do not allow them to move until all cars between the cones have come to a stop. Safety is my biggest concern.
  • Once your child is seated please wait for the car in front of you to start moving, do not move around another vehicle unless instructed to do so.
  • As the weather warms after school children WILL be outside playing. Please maintain the 10mph speed limit until you have turned onto Robinson road. 
I appreciate your efforts in keeping all of the children safe during pickup. I know that we all have places to be and things to do, but the most important thing is the safety of the children not 5 minutes here or there. 

Thank you! The kids sounded great yesterday. It is really a fabulous, funny, and heart-warming script. I hope you are all as excited as I am!

Script Posted

          I have now posted the official script link on the right hand side of this page. I am so excited about this script! I think you will all enjoy reading through it. Please preview and print the script with your child. If possible print the whole script rather than just your child's scenes as it is important the students are familiar with the whole story. You can print double sided to save paper. If you make a "copy" of the script in google you can also edit and highlight your child's part to make it easier for them to follow along. Either staple the script together, or three whole punch it and put it into a binder. Students should bring their script and a pencil to every rehearsal.

I have posted the complete rehearsal schedule on the rehearsal tab. The first full cast rehearsal is this Wednesday immediately after school till 3:30.

I am hoping to post the full script by Sunday evening for students to print at home.

Cast List...

Dear Parents and Students,
            Below you will find the cast list to this year’s 5th grade Play, The Reluctant Dragon. Thank you for your patience. I understand that waiting is the hardest part and I apologize for any anxious children who had to constantly check the website. That being said I was amazed and thrilled to have so many wonderful students auditioning this year. As always it was truly difficult to cast parts, as there were so many talented kids who auditioned. I know that there will be some disappointment as there always is when dealing with a casting situation. I am also confident that as soon as we get into the rehearsing the children will find the joy and excitement in their given role. Over the next week I will finalize changes in the script and put together a full rehearsal schedule. I am also putting together a parent email list. Please watch for parent updates through email as well as the website.  When you receive the schedule please read it carefully as your child WILL NOT be attending every rehearsal. If you have any questions regarding casting or rehearsals please contact me at jmoores@westfordk12.us

                                                                                    Sincerely,
                                                                                                Ms. Moores

Casting Update

I want to apologize for the lack of casting information. Due to circumstances beyond my control I have not been able to put the time and focus I need into casting. It is a very important process for me to put together the cast list and make sure that everyone is fit into a special place, because of this it is not something I can rush through. Please understand that I know how anxious everyone is to see the list and that I am doing everything possible to put it together.

Cast List

Cast List Update:

I know that there are many anxious children awaiting the casting results. I assure you that I am putting time and thought into the casting. Auditions were fabulous and I know that we are going to have an amazing cast. All of the children were wonderful making this a difficult process. I will update you as soon as I have a better idea of when the list will be complete. 
Thank you for your patience!
