So, does the lemon oil work?

After that long and intense test in class, can you vouch for the efficacy of lemon oil? Did it work? Did you feel smarter?

Bring your copy of Inherit the Wind to class tomorrow.

On Tuesday, October 31, the entire eighth grade class will travel to the Northlight Theatre in Skokie to attend a performance of Inherit the Wind. We will read the drama in Humanities classes and engage in pre- and post-performance discussions of the play.

Students will need to pack a lunch for that day. We will bring our lunches with us and eat before we return to school for 2:35 dismissal. The schedule for the day is as follows:

8:00-8:10 – gather as usual in advisories for attendance and announcements
8:15-8:45 – Halloween costume contest in Upper Kovler Gymnasium
8:50-8:55 – return costumes to locker if necessary and gather on Blaine steps to board buses
9:00 – depart for Skokie
10:15 – arrive at Northlight Theatre
10:30-12:30 – watch performance of Inherit the Wind
12:30-1:00 – eat lunch
1:00 – depart for Lab Schools
2:15-2:30 – arrive at Lab for dismissal

Depending upon the weather, we may be able to eat outside. Otherwise, we will eat in a designated space at the theater.
