Hello PWS Families,

The snow began to fall.  We walked into the cafeteria today and the students had a sparkle in their eyes from seeing the snow.  We asked them about the snow.  Their answers were, "It is awesome", "It was a light snow", "I am ready for 2 inches of snow not 2 feet."

Tonight is our Masquerade Ball.  There is an excitement in the air today with the PWS staff as they talk about the mystery of the evening.  Please remember that it begins at 7:00.  There is going to be a silent auction so please remember to check out all the items.  We hear there are going to be some awesome items to pick from.

It has been so wonderful to see so many parents in school this week.  Parent conferences seem to be going  well.  We always want to remember to give our students (children) the message that if you do not make mistakes you do not learn.  We know this as adults, but sometimes students forget this.



BHS Play-Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat
You are cordially invited to attend the BHS Theatre Company’s fall musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Perky and bright with energetic dance numbers, the show is an absolute hoot Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is enormously entertaining and fun.  Its showcasing of a cornucopia of musical genres, from country-western and rock to Elvis and pop is a blast.  Celebrating the always wonderful message about forgiveness, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is a must see for families of all ages.

In conjunction with the show’s opening night on Thursday, November 14th, Bedford High School is also hosting its second annual Empty Bowls event.  For months, students and staff have been turning out beautiful, handmade bowls.  For $10, guests receive a bowl of soup donated by local restaurants and take home the bowl as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world.  Dinner is served from 5pm to 7pm and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat begins right after.  To reserve a bowl or two or eleven, please email emptybowlsBHS@gmail.com.   

To snag the best seats for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, you can purchase tickets online at www.seatyourself.biz/bedfordhigh and are always welcome to purchase them at the door the night of a show.  The show is on Thursday, November 13th; Friday, November 14th; Saturday, November 15th at 7pm and Sunday, November 16th at 2pm.  It is also playing on Friday, November 21st and Saturday, November 22nd at 7pm.  We would love to see you there!

Sincerely,

The BHS Theatre Company
