The Glass Slipper Is Waiting! Cinderella Auditions Begin Next Week! 👑✨
The magic is about to begin, and we're looking for the talented students who will bring Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella to life on the District 7 stage!
Auditions for middle and high school students are NEXT WEEK! Students in grades 6–12 are invited to audition November 10 and 11 at the District 7 Fine Arts Center at Spartanburg High School.
This spring, students from across District 7 will come together for our districtwide musical, continuing a treasured tradition that brings students of all ages together to shine on stage and create something truly special.
And there's room for everyone in this fairy tale! From Cinderella and Prince Charming to the Fairy Godmother, stepsisters, townspeople, and members of the royal court, there are opportunities for singers and non-singers alike. Whether you love the spotlight or simply want to experience the excitement of a districtwide production, we'd love to see you audition!
Our youngest performers will have their chance to join the magic in December! Auditions for students in 5K–5th grade will take place December 7 at Pine Street School and December 8 at Mary H. Wright Elementary School.
Mark your calendars! Cinderella takes the District 7 Fine Arts Center stage April 22–25, 2027. All cast members must be available for every performance.

Students in our Spanish classes have learned about the Hispanic tradition of Día de los Muertos. This is a day where families honor and share memories of loved ones that have passed away. They build beautiful ofrendas to remember and celebrate those no longer with them. Our classes have collaborated to create this beautiful ofrenda for our hallway. Those honored on this ofrenda include Pablo Picasso, Michael Jackson, and Chadwick Bozeman.

It means a lot that McCracken football would come and support us. It speaks to a truth we hold in District 7. WE ARE ALL VIKINGS! The future is bright!

These photos show one engine of growth in our building. You see teachers and their classes being celebrated for a great start to their year as measured by benchmarks on learning indicators. You see teachers and an instructional coach taking honest account of what the data says. Where are the wins? Where are the areas that continuous improvement is needed? You see self reflection and questioning of how did I teach this indicator and was it effective? Student growth happens when our teachers collaborate. This is the work.
