Santa Cruz band Wooster – a local favorite known for playing a lively fusion of reggae, soul, rock and blues – will perform a FREE concert at the 5th Annual Summit for the Planet festival on April 9 from 11:00am to 3:00pm. Event co-host Mount Madonna School is especially pleased to welcome back alumnus Zack Donoghue (‘00), the band’s lead guitarist.
On March 5, the varsity boys played in the annual Aptos Spring Fling Tournament – a much smaller event this year, with only four school competing. The boys played well, and despite losing one match to Harker in pool play, persevered to emerge tournament winners!
Here are the game summaries:
Mount Madonna School over Aptos, 2-1

Whooping cough (pertussis) has been widespread in California. Many students have had to miss school because they were sick.
To help protect your children and others from whooping cough, a new California law now requires students to be vaccinated against whooping cough.
For the 2011-12 school year only, all students entering 7th through 12th grades will need proof of an adolescent whooping cough booster shot (Tdap) before starting school.

Ramayana Cast 2011 by Grade
12th Grade
With the Ramayana audition process completing, it is appropriate to acknowledge the challenges of casting both for performers and directors. For some, this will not be a big issue, while others may experience disappointment. The key is finding a way to move forward positively. Most of us have heard the statement before – every role is pivotally important – and while a bit of a cliché, it is proven true. Staring at the cast list, you will simply see a character title or group (like Demon Choir, Monkey or Demon) by your name. We may want to quickly categorize our roles as good or bad.
