As the cast members of A Charlie Brown Christmas, the winter repertory play, mingle with the joyful audience in the background, junior repertory theatre student Elise Dorsey describes what it is like to perform.
“Performing means to me being fulfilled and becoming another character. Just being fulfilled with being somebody else for a change because when you’re yourself you kind of need a break, and it’s fun to play somebody else and think about the other character’s thoughts and all that jazz.”

The robotics team worked on their robot, Fred, to prepare for the FRC Worlds competition. “I was working with the bumpers on our robot that protect [the] frame [for] when we hit or bump into something,” Neaderhiseri said. “We have put a lot of work into building and coding the robot and have run into many difficulties but we have overcome every issue.” photo by Jack Pischke](https://smnw.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/JPischkeRoboticsteam-7-1-1200x795.jpg)
