Performances are Wednesday, March 13 at 3 p.m. and Thursday and Friday, March 14–15 at 7 p.m. in the Donaldson Auditorium. Appropriate for all ages; best suited for 8+. Tickets available at the door ($10 for adults, $5 for students and seniors).
Learn about life at the high school
“Life at L-S,” a parent-to-parent conversation about the 8th-to-9th-grade transition with Lincoln School Principal Sharon Hobbs and L-S veteran parents and administrators, will take place on Monday, March 18 (rescheduled from two previous dates due to snow) from 7–8:30 p.m. in the Hartwell multipurpose room. The program will focus on extracurricular elements of a busy high-schooler’s life so families have contextual knowledge prior to the L-S course selection process in March.
