For the past few months, students and teachers prepared for the musical Peter Pan Jr. Over the weekend the play sold out for every performance. The cost for student tickets were $4 and the cost for adult tickets were $8. This musical was the first at the junior high that had special equipment allowing cast members of the play to fly. The play lasted about two hours with a 45 minute intermission. Saturday, March 15 was the most attended show. Teachers and other workers helped move extra chairs into the auditorium so that everybody had a seat.
