Robinson MS Show: Alice in Wonderland!

Alice

Robinson MS presents an original adaptation of Alice in Wonderland [#quarantine edition] Feb 11 - Feb 20!

Tickets are limited, and will go quickly- so head to www.robinsondrama.org to purchase your tickets!

An original adaptation devised by Robinson Middle School artists, this timely version of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland follows Alice as she navigates through life's challenges and discoveries during unprecedented times: in the midst of a global pandemic.

Wonderland characters fill her virtual world with confusion, chaos, song and dance, and pathways to self-discovery.

This show was conceived and created by middle school artists whose world's shifted on March 13th, 2020. Their personal experiences, memories, hardships, and celebrations frame our story.

We hope the community will join us on this brave and innovative adventure!

The process has been the journey for our team- a place and space to process the last two years. It is now time to share their work and connect with others in this communal experience that continues today.

Join us for this truly remarkable piece of theatre that is a "looking glass" reflecting all of us, today.

This show was created by and for Middle School students, though is appropriate for all ages.

Academic Advising Continues

School Counselors are excited to have the opportunity to meet individually this year! Please note that students will be meeting one on one with their Counselor and will NOT need to reach out directly to schedule a time to meet. The schedule for each grade level is shown below. If students have taken a course like HPE over the summer or are not currently enrolled in the course (not to worry) Counselors will still find time to meet with students during that scheduled time frame.

Rising 11 Academic Advising: February 7th—February 18th through HPE 10

Rising 10 Academic Advising: February 22nd—March 3  through HPE 9

Rising 11th or 12th grade students on track for the IB diploma should be meeting with IB Diploma Coordinators, Ms. Vu and Ms. Cho, prior to their academic advising window.

Note: Students may make changes to their course selections until March 11th – after this date, course request changes will only be made on a space-available basis. If students wish to be registered for a “closed” course after March 11th, they will be placed on a waitlist. All requests for changes to course selections must be made before June 10th, 2022.
