Shakespeare
The annual Shakespearean performance is heralded by the entire community for its creativity in faithfulness to Shakespeare’s meanings. The students act and volunteer to help behind the scenes. The entire performance enriches the community through a practical application of the incredible amount of work into presenting a performance. If students happen to absorb some of the greatest classic literature in English canon while in the process, then so be it!

“All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.”
