Young Actresses Sought for Frozen
Uintah High Theatre is seeking two talented girls to play Young Anna and Young Else in the upcoming production of Frozen: The Broadway Musical. Actresses must be at least in 2nd grade, and able to sing loudly and beautifully, act brilliantly, dance a little, and follow directions.
Auditions will be held on Dec. 2 at 6 p.m. in the Uintah High Auditorium. All actresses who audition should be prepared to perform “Do You Want to Build a Snowman.” They should also come dressed for movement because a brief choreography sequence will be taught. Questions? Visit the Uintah High Theatre Facebook page, or contact Chris Piner at chris.piner@uintah.net.
New Communication Tool
The district is excited to announce the upcoming launch of new tool that will simplify how we communicate with parents and guardians. Rooms is built right into our Uintah School District app and website. It offers secure, safe two-way messaging.
This addition allows us to bring the community closer together. From messages to and from educators, to events, lunch menus, and more – everything can now live in one place.
Rooms will become our primary method for all communication between staff, coaches, families, and teachers. It offers one place for every message. No more juggling multiple communication apps, flipping between inboxes, or remembering different logins. You’ll get notified automatically of new messages via text, even if you haven’t downloaded our district app. Built-in moderation and other safety tools allow us to ensure safety of all communications.
Rooms will be live and ready for messaging with educators on Monday, Nov. 17. You can download the Uintah School District app for Android at https://aptg.co/Klb_d9 or for iPhone at https://aptg.co/tCMY6r.
