There are only a few spots open so make sure you stick to the deadline. Being organized and responsible are the most important traits for a Tech Crew member!

From Ms. Burton:Did you know spreading rumors is considered bullying? Let’s talk about how to squash rumors. If you hear gossip or rumors, you can help stop the rumor in its tracks and not let it go further.  You might say something like

•                   “That sounds like a rumor to me”
•                   “You don’t have proof of that.”
•                   “You don’t know if that’s true.”
•                   “That sounds like something you should talk about with the person involved.”

Be sure you figure out some way to stay away from rumors and gossip.

From Mr. J Anderson: Picture make up day is Friday, October 14th! If you did not take your picture or want to take a new one, please report to the theater during your assigned time. The schedule will be posted on the TA canvas page.
