Please congratulate the following members of our Model UN team who have earned positions at our competition at VAMUN this month!!!!! : Lucas Kabasakalian, Zach Reulbach, Kate Nelson, Isabella Friedli, Akshi Kumar, Mahesh Vankineni, Sam Duty, Grant Haigney, and Josh Reynolds. We look forward to future conferences in the spring with many more of our members.

As cooler temperatures arrive for the fall season and more students are using the spaces in the upper school, please take a moment to review the following expectations for using the library:

• The library is for academic study.  Please remember that the library is a shared space- be mindful of your classmates and their need for a study space that is conducive for academic pursuits.  If you prefer to use your drop to watch Netflix, to play video games, or to talk with your friends,  please use the commons or another place on campus.
• In order to maintain a clean study environment, please enjoy your lunch in the cafeteria.
• Three study rooms are available for use, but you must reserve a room in advance. Please see Mr. Kmidowski to register to use the small group study rooms
• The study carrel area is reserved for individual, silent study
• The annex is reserved for small group, quiet study
• Students entering the library agree to adhere to these expectations- this includes lunch and break time, student choice, and after school hours.  Again, be mindful of your classmates!

CTC’s Fall Shows Are Here!

Cannon Theater Company’s Fall One-Acts will be performed next Thurs Nov 7, Fri Nov 8, and Sat Nov 9 at 7:00pm. The evening will begin with “An Incomplete History Of Theater”, an original play with music dreamed up by our endlessly creative and courageous troupe of CTC performers. It’s a funny and fast-paced 45-minute tour through theater history from the Greeks to the present. After a brief intermission we’ll present Stephen Gregg’s “Wake-Up Call”, a dizzying and darkly funny plunge into the teenage psyche designed to keep you guessing at every turn. Don’t miss the chance to experience what’s possible when over 40 students collaborate to create a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience!
