2013 Drama logo Pajama Game 

The award-winning Newport Harbor drama department will present its spring musical, 
"Pajama Game," is THIS week (
May 9th, May 10th, and May 11th 
at 7:00 PM 
in the Robert Wentz Theater, Newport Harbor High School - 
May 11th matinee at 2:00 PM.)

 

This delightful musical comedy tells the story of Babe Williams, a union leader at the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory.  She is trying to get a 7 ½ cent raise for her co-workers, but the factory owners are not budging.  To complicate the plot, Babe falls in love with the handsome new superintendent, Sid Sorokin.  Will Babe be successful in her campaign for a raise, or will she be side-tracked by the call of romance?  To find out you will need to buy a ticket, but we will guarantee you will laugh your socks off as you enjoy some exciting musical numbers.

Wonderful work to the Home Tour Artist: 
 

Intro to the Home Tour:

We are so thankful to all the homeowners who open up their homes for the Newport Harbor Home and Garden Tour.  To show our appreciation to them, they are given a beautiful rendering of the exterior of their home done by one of the talented art students at Newport Harbor High School.  This artwork is often treasured by the homeowners and proudly displayed in the homes featured on the home tour.  Be sure to look for these unique art pieces when you tour the homes this year.

 

Art teacher, Alesandra Esquivel:

"I am very proud of my students who participated in the Home Tour assignment! The Home Tour assignment is a great way for the advance students to continue their progression with utilizing their artistic skills. This project also offers an opportunity for the students to possibly try something they have never done before. The Home Tours assignment is designed to help students create an original artwork, along with sharing their talents with the Home owners and the school. Students work from photo references and may chose any art medium they would like to work with. This allows all students to add that creative freedom with the material and adds a variety throughout the project. It's a wonderful experience to watch and guide these artists produce this original artwork using their style and talents."

Absence Phone Line:
When your student is absent, please report it.
Call (949) 515-6305

 

Just a reminder that no student will be released from school over the telephone and no early dismissals will be issued over the telephone. The parent/guardian should send their student to school with a note to obtain an Off Campus Permit. The student needs to give their note to Attendance before school or at break.

 

In the event of an emergency, a parent/guardian must come into the Attendance Office and sign the student out of school. The Attendance Office will not telephone classrooms to have students excused from school out of respect for instructional time. 

If a student becomes ill while at school, the student should not call their parent. They should instead go to the nurse's office. The nurse will call home for the student.

Thank you to all Newport Harbor parents and students for your understanding and your cooperation.
