The Mattoon High School Drama Club presents “Disco Inferno” on March 31st and April 1st at the MHS gymnasium.
Tickets are $7 for adults and $5 for kids.
“Disco Inferno,” is a book by Justin Sepple. In the promotional material for the play, “Three words that describe this stylized musical would be Faust with Flare. With its retro setting, “Disco Inferno” oozes nostalgia and inspires smiles to hustle their way into audience members’ faces. If you love the 1970s, then you’ll love this riotous trip back to the decade that brought us flared trousers, platform shoes and glitter. In “Disco Inferno,” the story of Faust is brought back to life in an explosion of hit songs and high-energy dance routines.”

Remember the Kindness Cafe? They are a group of students at Riddle Elementary that brainstorm ways to spread kindness and serve others throughout the school and community.
Their next "Dollar Drop Day" is Friday, April 1st. They are asking students and staff to donate $1 and wear mismatched clothes. The money raised will go to the Salvation Army (voted on by the school).
They created this graphic all on their own to help spread the word about their fundraiser. You can hit "share" if you'd like to help them out.

Friday Feel Good!
Tami Sander's Wave Time Class at MHS put together a project recently to give back to the community. They decided to do a pallet wood project since they had plenty of resources available to use at the high school. They created and designed decorations to sell, voting to give proceeds to One-Stop Community Christmas.
The class was able to present a $250 check to One-Stop! We are thankful for their hard work and thoughtfulness.
