This year's high school drama production of The Wizard of Oz was a huge hit this past weekend at The Colonnade Theater in Ringgold, GA. Both nights saw a capacity audience who were given a superb performance that was a first, including both elementary and middle school students in key roles alongside the high school cast. Along with one of the largest casts ever to perform for SBA, there was also live music to accompany many of the musical numbers. The visual arts students of high school art teacher Mrs. Leslie set up an extensive gallery in the theater's hallway to show off some of the talented artists and their Oz-inspired works as well. To God by the glory as our fine arts programs continue to grow and thrive!
