Poetry Out Loud!

t’s time for Poetry Out Loud at Glacier High School! This nation-wide contest encourages high school students to learn about great poetry through memorization, performance, and competition. In past years, Glacier students have progressed through contest levels at our school and county and gone on to the state competition.

Our school-level competition will be held in Oakhurst on Wednesday, November 30 with the top two students moving on to the Madera county competition at Yosemite High School in January 2017. County representatives will participate in the State Finals March 12-13, 2017, with the state champion advancing to the National Finals April 25-26, 2017, in Washington, DC.

Poetry Out Loud gives students an opportunity to master public speaking skills, build self-confidence, and learn about their literary heritage. The official anthology for Poetry Out Loud contains over 900 poems from which to choose and can be found at: http://www.poetryoutloud.org/poems-and-performance/find-poems

For an overview of the experience, click on the tab titled “The Competition” or find Poetry Out Loud on YouTube at:
https://www.youtube.com/user/poetryoutloudvideos

If you are interested in this year’s Poetry Out Loud experience at Glacier High School, here is what you need to do before Saturday, November 5:

1. Contact Kaylene Friesen at kfriesen@wscsfamily.org with your name, grade, school site, phone number, and let her know that you are interested in Poetry Out Loud so that she can get more specific information to you.


2. Read, view, and listen to as much as you possibly can on the Poetry Out Loud site or at the YouTube channel.

3. Begin looking through the poetry anthology on the Poetry Out Loud website or in the print version if one is available and choose 2 or 3 poems to begin memorizing.


This has been a very rewarding experience for many high school students and we would love for you to be a part of it. Our contest on November 30 will begin after 2:00 and we will announce the exact time in the near future.

Many of you have responded favorably to the idea of attending plays throughout the year and this is the first opportunity of this school year. Tables 17 & 18 have been reserved for Glacier students, friends, and families for the  7p.m., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5th  performance of The Music Man at the Golden Chain Theatre in Oakhurst. Glacier High School will not be supplying chaperones for this event and families are encouraged to attend.

This is a family-friendly show that runs from October 28-November 20th and Glacier's very own Charly Collins will take part in the pre-show.
​
When you buy your tickets, mention you are with Glacier High School and would like seats at Table 17 or 18 or as close by as possible. Unsold seats at our tables will be released after October 24.

​For more information and tickets, call (559) 683-7112 or go to http://www.goldenchaintheatre.org/
Doors open at 6p.m. for the 7p.m. performance. Spread the word to friends and family and we hope to see you there on the 5th!
