My thanks to Mr. Brian Peterson for his work with these students.

One of the joys of attending a small high school is the opportunity to do many things. Although it has been over forty years since my high school days, I still remember the thrill of being in speech contests and participating in theatrical performances.  This was in addition to playing basketball and baseball.

One of my favorite memories is being a 14-year old freshman playing the part of Atticus Finch in "To Kill a Mockingbird."  I had a smaller role in the play, "George Washington Slept Here," but the fun we had with that performance was amazing.  Those are memories that last a lifetime.  I am happy for the Saint Albert students who are making similar memories in their own journey.

It's speech and drama.  You knew it could not just be a boring and stiff formal photo of the group.  Congratulations team!  Enjoy the experience.
