Theatre Fest Conference

Actor Willem Dafoe is quoted as saying, “Great theatre is about challenging how we think and encouraging us to fantasize about a world we aspire to.” Two Castleberry High School theatre students are aspiring to greater things. With the support of the District and Campus level administrators, Senior Mariah S. and Junior Skylar P. traveled with CISD theatre teachers Christian and Stephanie Sanders to Houston to attend the Texas Educational Theatre Association’s annual Theatre Fest Conference. Both young ladies performed monologues for adjudicators from about 50 colleges and universities. They both made callbacks for several schools. While there they also attended sessions with other students from all over Texas and were able to see programs from across the state and the country. 

Mariah was 1 of only 100 seniors, and Skylar was 1 of only 39 juniors who earned a spot to audition at the festival. The students have already received several verbal offers for scholarships and are looking forward to sharing the knowledge gained at the workshops with their fellow theatre students.

Home-School Partnerships

We are in the business of student success.  All stakeholders must hold themselves and students accountable.   Stakeholders that do not hold themselves and students accountable for their actions at home and school make it difficult to have an atmosphere of collaboration and teamwork between the school and home.  It is an essential life skill to guide students at home and in school in order to form appropriate behavior towards others in public.  Certainly, these behaviors include following school rules, home rules, rules of society, and the use of appropriate verbal and nonverbal communication. Students mimic behavior.  Stakeholders must support their student's education, and when they know the student is in the wrong, it is critical to help them understand and accept consequences for his or her behavior.  Accepting the consequences of one's acts is part of an important behavior formation for the child and is an essential component in the learning process of life skills.  Rules and procedures are in place for the safety and educational rights of all learners. Creating dialogue between home and school, and developing the necessary relationships between these two, are important for success.  Children and students will experience greater success when all investors share the same goal and path to achieving that goal. Remember Lions, We Are Achieving Excellence Together!!!

Please post ideas/strategies on building, nurturing and maintaining meaningful relationships between all stakeholders in order to achieve student success.
