Ticket sales are running very strong for this year’s middle school musical. Opening Night (May 3) is SOLD OUT, and Closing Night (May 11) is a few tickets away from selling out as well. Don’t procrastinate on buying tickets, or you may not be able to see the show!
You can also make a donation to the middle school drama program on the website. All donations are tax deductible and support our outstanding drama program so we can offer amazing shows like Beauty and the Beast year after year.
Please contact Stephanie Lucash, Box Office Coordinator at sllucash@yahoo.com, if you have any questions about ticket sales.
Thanks for supporting our actors and for coming to the show!
We Need Bakers!
Help Support our production by donating baked goods for us to sell at concessions. Our patrons look forward to a home-baked treat at intermission and your donation helps support our drama program. You earn two parent volunteer hours for your baked goods donation. We also need donations of bulk packages of chips (for the salty patron 😉).
We welcome high school students to come in and help us out. In particular we need help prepping our actors with hair and make-up, and setting up and running our concessions. If you know of any students who would be interested, please have them contact Tricia Bentley at triciabentley@gmail.com or (206) 617-1174.

And Kudos for our talented actors…
Not a baker? Then please help procure items we can then sell as kudos for your favorite actor – we’re looking for bulk chips and hershey bars.

This week, Middle School boys and their 1st grade buddies worked together to create snack packs for clients of the Queen Anne Food Bank at Sacred Heart.
The snack packs consist of cereal, pretzels, and chocolate chips donated by Saint Al’s families. The students created enough snack packs to fill 10 grocery bags, which were then delivered to the food back after school. Great job students!
Does your child like to run? Jump? Throw things? Get to know kids in other grades? Have fun? Track season is starting soon! Sign your 4th – 8th grader up for the St. Al/St. John track team. We had a ton of fun last year with a record 85 kids participating, and a 2018 CYO championship team win. We look forward to another year and any and all are welcome to participate regardless of experience or ability.
Practices start Monday, March 25 and continue through the end of May. Practices will be Mondays and Wednesdays, 6:30 – 8:00 PM at the Ingraham High School track. This year we are also able to offer Friday practices, 6:30 – 7:30, for those who want to do a bit more running or get additional practice on their field events. Meets will be on Saturdays, May 4, 11, 18, and June 1. There is also a very fun 8th grade-only Pentathlon on May 19 that we encourage all 8th graders to participate in—pizza party details will be forthcoming.
Like cross-country, practices are optional–we understand kids have many other commitments, so please send your kids when it works. Please don’t worry if you can attend any or all of the meets. Also, we understand many kids do club sports outside of school, so if they can’t make any practices but will be running elsewhere, we would still love to have them for meets if they are interested, so let us know.
We’re welcoming back Mike Martinez as distance coach and Trevor Sevigny as sprinting coach, and are thrilled to have Dave White and Rachel Lambert on board to coach sprinting and Chris and Marie Holt back to continue their support with coaching distance. If anyone else has a passion for track, we welcome any and all parent-helpers at practices.

We’re looking for antlers! As part of our set design we’re looking for antlers. You know, the kind you find at a hunting lodge or cabin-in-the-woods. Nothing overly large, in fact smaller is better.
If you have something we can borrow, please contact Tricia Bentley at triciabentley@gmail.com.
Open to youth in grades 6-8, this year’s event will be held at O’Dea High School with Mass at St. James Cathedral. Register your child today: tinyurl.com/jhe2019
Do you love Theater? Can you sew? Are you a bargain thrift store hunter?
Costume Work Party Saturday, March 2 2-4 pm School Auditorium
We’re looking for volunteers to help us with this year’s production of Beauty and the Beast, Jr. You do not need to have a child cast in the show to volunteer. This Saturday we are having a Costume Work Party where we will begin by sorting through the many bins of costumes we already possess and outlining what needs to be re-purposed, adapted, created, purchased or procured. We’re looking to assemble a team to hit thrift stores, hem here or there, and help organize. We promise a fun time, clear communication, and tasks based on volunteer time available. Please reach out to Victoria Long and let her know you want to be part of this year’s Costume Crew: victoria.long63@gmail.com.
If there are other ways you would like to help with the middle school musical, please contact Volunteer Coordinator, Tricia Bentley at triciabentley@gmail.com.
Last Weekend! Don’t Miss Out!
