Festival of Courage Fun!
Two years have passed since the Festival of Courage play was performed live and the pedagogical needs that our play meets needed to be revisited. The faculty thanks the teachers who workshopped our Courage Play script to illuminate our core values as a Waldorf Alliance School and the MBCS Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee mission. Mentor teachers Natalie Croft, Nicolle Frazee, Giulie Garland, Aaron Joseph, Janaka Stagnero and Jazmin Ventura broadened the embrace of the curriculum by including more of it. A song from the Spanish curriculum “I Am Brave/Soy Valiente” is included now and our cast of characters have been amplified. The fifth grade royal court includes noble leaders from different lands and the third grade guardians will represent characters of ancient Norse mythology as well legendary warriors from around the world. This year’s event followed the protocols of an assembly which means the audience was limited to chaperones. The play was recorded for families. Thank you Estrella Films for capturing our fun day on film!
