STUDENT INFO
Calling all students! Do you want to help plan prom? Applications for the prom board are now open to freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors! Come by Mrs. Royster’s room VA 102 anytime to pick up an application. Let’s start planning next year’s unforgettable prom together! (If you already picked up and completed an application at the end of the last school year, you do not need to resubmit.)
Have you ever been interested in being a part of Masquers, but don’t want to be ON stage? We are looking for students to help backstage. We especially need deck crew. Our deck crew will be moving items on and off stage to create the illusion of different locations. To do this they will change scenes by moving set pieces and flying items in and out of the scene. We also need a few people to help with other areas like mic crew to help our actors be heard. If you are interested in any area of backstage work, please come to our Masquers Tech meeting after school on Fridays on stage in the Auditorium or contact us at masquers@ortn.edu.
Teachers please submit Quiz and Test codes to Mr. Kolodney, Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Hale, and Mr. Van Eek.
