Eight of our Helix teachers recently attended the National News Literacy Conference, diving into cutting-edge strategies for media literacy.

From spot-checking bias and vetting online sources through lateral reading to helping students think critically about AI-generated content, our educators are bringing back tools to prepare Scotties for a complex media landscape!

Welcome to Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, The Murder at Haversham Manor—where absolutely nothing could possibly go wrong!

Well, actually... everything will. The Play That Goes Wrong is a hilarious, award-winning comedy that tracks an accident-prone amateur theater troupe as they struggle to make it to the final curtain call. From a collapsing set and missing props to unconscious actors and a script that completely derails, this Highland Players production promises non-stop laughs, physical comedy, and absolute chaos.

Four Shows Only! October 21-24 All shows at 7pm on the MainStage Theater.

This show is double cast, so please check the chart below to make sure that you're seeing all of the Highland Players that you are looking for!
