THERE ARE JUST THREE MORE SHOWS OF OUR SPRING MUSICAL, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN: tonight, Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm in the PAC. Tickets are now on sale at lunch in the AC, online or buy them at the door: $15 for adults and $10 for students. Mel Brook's comedy classic film, Young Frankenstein, comes to life as a knee-slapping, toe-tapping musical. Frederick Frankenstein inherits his grandfather's Transylvania estate, though he is reluctant to take on the family business of creating monsters. But with the help of a collection of eccentric characters, he will bring the dead back to life and find his true destiny.
A NATHAN HALE PATRIOT is a senior who has gone above and beyond the call of duty for service to their school and community. They have given hours of service to clubs, organizations, and at school. Quite often, they are behind the scenes workers who go unnoticed. The Patriot Award is not an athletic award, rather a way to recognize those who make the Nathan Hale community better for all of us. Nominations may be made either by a student or a staff member. The nominee must be a SENIOR who is actively engaged in school activities and given his/her time to help the school without obtaining recognition. This student must truly express the spirit of Nathan Hale. Forms are available in the office or from Mr. Renouard in room 2132. Completed forms must be submitted to Mr. Renouard no later than Wednesday May, 15
SENIORS - DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY? Do you have a connection to Hale that you want to share? Are you just a funny speaker? Then audition to be a speaker at graduation. Our graduation speakers have traditionally been from all over our student population. They are kids with interesting perspectives and a story to tell. Auditions for Graduation speakers will be held on Monday the 18th right after school in room 2132. Students should have their completed speech written and well-rehearsed. Many will audition, few will be chosen so encourage students to practice and be prepared. Please encourage a broad cross-section of our students to audition. See Mr. Renouard in 2132 for details and more information.

The free program will operate from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 19 and will include supervised recreation activities.

Parents are asked to send a sack lunch with their child. Snacks will be provided to all students, and lunch will be provided to those students who are unable to bring their own. Parks’ Teen Centers will be open 2:30-8:00 p.m. in order to provide some daytime drop-in activities for teens. Geographically located Teen Centers are Meadowbrook, Garfield, and Southwest.
