House on Mango Street at Park Square Theatre: CCHS Spanish Field Trip

On November 21st, the students of Miss Wheeler’s Spanish class went to see the play “The House on Mango Street.” The play was about Esperanza, a young girl living on Mango Street. Through the play we saw many of the monumental events in her life, including when her grandfather passed away, when she stayed after school, or when she told stories to her aunt. The play addresses the theme of “home is where the heart is” and what goes along with that saying. Most of the Spanish class walked away from the play feeling confused. There were only eight actors who all played multiple roles which made it hard to follow at times. Also the setting rapidly changed making it difficult distinguish one from another. The actors though were all talented you could follow the story by watching their faces. After leaving the theater there was a feeling of confusion, whether that was because it was thought-provoking or it was just hard to follow, remains to be said. Thanks to Miss Wheeler for making this possible!

The Clan War Has Ended: The Clash of the Advisories - Results

Step into battle at the CCHS clash of the advisories! Early in the morning on Nov. 20, all of the advisories congregated in the gym. With different attack and defensive strategies we can all agree that the results surprised all of us. Each of the advisors set up their “town halls” or solo cups arranged in a pyramid shape. The advisories then threw giant yoga balls(giants) and dodge balls(goblins) at other advisories town halls. The victors came as a shock to most advisories; as Mr.Schaap’s advisory took the win by a default situation. Each advisory had to work together to think of strategies and tactics. This event helped us come together as an advisory and build fellowship with one another.
