We need Water Donations!!
As you may be aware the school has installed water bottle fillers all around the building. There is one conveniently located right around the corner from Dee’s office. Therefore, in an attempt to reduce waste we are asking all students to bring a refillable water bottle labeled with their name to rehearsals, techs and shows. We will still ask for bottled water donations from time to time since we will keep some on hand for emergencies, tech week, etc. but we are hoping that the students will pitch in and remember to bring their water bottles from home.
