PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE: December 1, 2003

We Love You Conrad
Simply put, the Hall production of Bye Bye Birdie was amazing. Everything about it was incredible. The sets, costumes and stage transformed the gym. The student performances impressed me most of all. It was truly moving to watch our children sing, dance and act with such talent and energy.

Congratulations to all of the students who put in so much time to make the play a success. Your hard work during rehearsal was evident every minute of the play. You should be very proud of what you have accomplished. I definitely am.

A production of this caliber this does not happen without a tremendous investment of time and energy. Becky Reed and her supporting parent volunteers worked tirelessly from the first audition to the final curtain. In my estimation Becky must have heard the words “We love you Conrad” sung approximately 23,789 times over the last several months. It is a special gift to be able to help students find their artistic voice. Becky and the parents who were involved in this production did more than simply put on a play; they helped our children to grow.

Thankful
A Thanksgiving tradition in my family has always been to share one thing that we are each thankful for. With six kids around the table, it always took a while to get through everyone. We would each hem and haw, and then start with the ubiquitous: “I am thankful for…” Now that I am a member of the Hall family, and in keeping with that family tradition: I am thankful for the students at Hall Middle School. They have welcomed me with kindness and sweetness and have never failed to make me smile every day. Thank you.

—Daniel Norbutas, Principal

Bye Bye BirdieEarly in the career of Elvis Presley, he was drafted into the Army. “Bye Bye Birdie” is the satiric Broadway musical smash about an Elvis-inspired rock star, Conrad Birdie, who is drafted into the Army and who creates a near-riot in a small town when he stops for one last publicity junket in 1957. Performances were Nov 20-22, 1:00pm & 7:30pm.
