Fourth grade students will be the Choir for Joseph at Weathervane

Mrs. Heffernan's entire fourth grade class has been learning the songs to the musical Joseph and the Amazing Technicolored Dreamcoat to perform at Weathervane Theatre. They will perform in 4 of the shows in the week of November 24th. This is Weathervane's 10th year to do the show, and are very excited to present it to the community this holday season. The children will be on stage for the entire show, and sing in almost every song in the show along with the cast and main characters. We are especially proud because we found out one of the main singers, the narrator, is a former Miller South graduate.

Veteran's Day - War and Peace: A Child's Vision


A students in room 115 had the privilege of participating in a ceremony of honor for those that have served in the armed services. With the help of Mrs. Yingling, the students created four banners in the style of Henri Matisse. They then worked with Nikki Robinson, from the Wick Poetry Center in Kent and created a group poem entitled Our Que Huong. Que huong is a traditional saying in Viet Nam that figuratively asks, "Where are you from?" A group of students presented their group poem on Sunday night along with a number of veterans from current and past wars. Their artwork will hang at the First Congregational Church in Tallmadge until December 7, Pearl Harbor Day. Take a look at the photos of their artwork and listen to the presentation of their group poem.
The students sincerely want to thank those that currently serve or have served our country to make this world a better place.
