Self-Discovery and Empowerment: “Legally Blonde” at Mount Madonna School
Edgy, ironic and bitingly funny, Legally Blonde also contains a message of empowerment and self-discovery, and believing in one’s own capabilities whether you’re woman or man, blonde or some other hair color. This upbeat musical is infused with contemporary music in various styles, including ballad, reggae, snappy funk and big Broadway-like ‘show-stoppers.’
Tickets for Legally Blonde are on sale now and can be purchased through Thursday, January 23, in the school office or by calling 408-847-2717. After that, tickets will be available at the door.
Tickets are $10 for students 18 years and under, and $15 for adults. MMS alumni are $10 on Friday and Saturday.
Tickets may be purchased by check or cash; or with a credit card for orders of $25 or more.
Memorable Haircut: Student Donates Hair to Locks of Love
On Christmas Eve, high school student Amelia Busenhart had a very special haircut – one she will remember for a long time. This time, rather than snipped hair landing on a salon floor, Amelia’s lengthy pony tail was donated to the nonprofit organization Locks of Love, which uses human hair to craft wigs and hairpieces for children afflicted with long-term or permanent medical hair loss.

MMS Supports Reading and Hall District Students with Gift of Books
Mount Madonna School supports the Hall District School reading program each year through One-For-Books at the Scholastic Book Fair. For every dollar earned at the Book Fair we’re able to buy books for our Emerging Reader Buddies at Hall, then Scholastic also donates 1 book for each dollar earned to another charity. That’s a win-win if I ever heard one! Thanks to all who donated their extra change, or just donated for the program!Enchanting “Aladdin Jr.” Performance Photos Available
