From the Desk of the Magnet Directors

Theatre Magnet Director- Mr. Kisor

• Our students are full on Little Mermaid mode and have been working extremely hard every afternoon at rehearsals! This Saturday is our Sitz probe rehearsal. If you do not know what that means, it is our first opportunity to sing through the show with the band live! It is a very exciting time and students get to incorporate a little bit more as far as set pieces, costumes, props and media additions. The show is coming together! Please come watch and support this awesome performance! The show is April 4th, 5th & 6th. Tickets can be found at www.leehightheatre.org.
• Over Spring Break, Kisor and Camp along with one student attended SETC. The Southeastern Theatre Conference in Mobile. It is awfully packed theatre experience and the largest theatre conference in the country! It is full of keynote speakers, workshops, design competitions and auditions. It is a wonderful time for students to speak with colleges and learn from professionals all over the country. We will be taking a larger group in 2025!
• This past Tuesday, we were able to be on Fox 54’s Show & Tell thanks to the Broadway LEague of Huntsville. We had the opportunity to bring two cast members and talk about all the cool stuff with Little Mermaid. It was a wonderful opportunity to get Lee’s name out in the community and we are so grateful for the experience!

Director of Technical Theatre- Ms. Campolongo

Hello!! We are almost at tech week for The Little Mermaid!! We are so excited and the kids have been working super hard. Next week, we are going to focus on rigging the scenery for the set. A few reminders for all students

• Students are expected to complete 2 after school work calls or 1 full weekend work call before tech of the Little Mermaid

• Students must bring appropriate shoes to class. If not, students lose half of their participation points for the day.

• Students not involved in the performances are expected to attend 1 performance of the Little Mermaid with a purchased ticket OR usher a minimum of 2 performances. A reflection will be turned in after for a grade.

Dance Magnet Director- Mrs. Hunkapillar

The spring concert is called “Listen” and our performance dates are April 25 and 26 at 7:00 PM. Our tickets are all $5.00 and are available for purchase at the door. I will give all dancers a very detailed Tech week and performance expectation sheet next week.

Creative Writing Magnet Director- Ms. Sisson

• Hello from the authors! Our two teams have been working hard to get our first proof sent for the lit mag.

• Our social media team is finalizing their posts to highlight and promote the litmag this semester. Their plan is to make posts on Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
• The proposed date for Readers’ Theatre is May 1st and 2nd in the Black Box. Authors are working on individual pieces, group pieces, and getting copies for lit mag release at our final Readers’ Theatre of the year!

Visual Arts Magnet Directors- Mrs. Johnson and Ms. Radowski

• V.A. Magnet 4: students are continuing work on their reductive relief prints. They are planning their final senior project, which will be a self-portrait that pays homage to another artist/movement.

• Ceramics: Students are refining their technical skills. They are preparing work for our upcoming school wide art show.

Photography Magnet Director- Mr. Willmarth

• All students are getting either an introduction or a review of digital photo editing tools. We are starting with the basics and adding more complexity through a variety of daily projects until the students will be able to work independently creating Photomontages and promotional materials showcasing what they have learned.

Film and Video Director- Mr. Lee

• Below is a sneak peek at the teaser for the MathNation lesson series we filmed before spring break. This “hype” trailer is still waiting for official approval from MathNation’s Marketing Department, so the final version may change.
