Went to see the production of WONDERLAND at the school last night…read more It was a modern-day retelling of a classic story from Broadway hit-maker Frank Wildhorn (Jekyll & Hyde, The Scarlet Pimpernel). Adult Alice, a modern-day, disillusioned video game developer from New York who is juggling a failing marriage, motherhood, and intense work environmentto the point of challenging her own sense of identity, she follows a rabbit down a service elevator and crashes into a bizarre, upside-down reality. Welcome to WONDERLAND. Alice had to face a sinister, power-hungry Mad Hatter, a Queen of Hearts, and a charismatic Cheshire Cat. Alice's quest to find her lost daughter forces her to confront the greatest mystery of all: how to find the courage and wonder she lost long ago. The girls who played Alice, the Queen of Hearts, the Mad Hatter had amazing vocals. All the kids in the show were amazing with their acting, singing and dancing. The orchestra, WOW is all I can say about them. They were fantastic from start to finish. They all did such an amazing and professional job with the entire show, the stage hands, the lighting and sound, it was all like a professional show. High praise for the kids. The staff??? In the lobby, there was this one staff member, strong accent and very long fake lashes who makes one concerned about our future generation. On the table there was a sign that clearly said "SOLD OUT". We got our tickets on House Seats, obviously I had tickets otherwise I would not have been there, I had already talked to this lady once asking where the restroom was when I first arrived. So unless they just let anyone wander in off the streets to use the restroom on a show night??? As I said, we got our tickets on House Seats which means they were free. I wanted to support the kids, the theater program and the school, so I went up to the table and I said; "IF, I were to purchase tickets, how much would they have cost?" This young brilliant adult mind, looks at me, points to the sign, and says, "We are sold out". I'm retired military, I have a business degree, my generation learned how to read and like I said, I didn't just wander in off the streets just because.... I responded with, "I have tickets, which I displayed in case she was confused, I said I know it's sold out, I'm asking what the prices of the tickets would be if I were to buy them? The gentleman next to her quoted a range of price which prompted a short discussion between the two. OMG, I'm afraid for our future generation of kids. I handed the guy $40 to which he asked what it was for? I said a donation for the kids, the program and the school. I guess a lot of people don't think to donate if they got tickets for free which is sad. Programs in schools need our support and if you could have seen the production, it was amazing. Sadly it's becoming less in Public Schools. Their sound/lighting control area was better than some shows I've seen around town. The stage was massive, the props were professionally designed, the kids, from the Technical Director, down to the stage hands and every position in between, this could have easily been a production on the strip, that's how good it was and how amazing of a job the kids did. I will gladly go see a show here anytime and will gladly pay whatever the price is for a ticket and then some, to support such an amazing theater program. And again, the orchestra, one of the best from start to finish.

Also, I'd like to add something important to my last review about Mrs. Arai -- because to this day,…read moreit still pisses me off. Look, I'll be the first to admit it: I suck at math. I've always struggled with it, and even now, it's still not my thing. I'm not good at it, and I probably never will be. But just because someone struggles with a subject doesn't mean they deserve to be humiliated. Back in her class, I sat next to this girl who -- for some reason doesn't like me at all. and from what I remember, I think Mrs. Arai thought I was cheating off her. Just to be clear, I wasn't. I would never cheat. I might be bad at math, but I always try to do things honestly. And even if I was cheating, which again, I wasn't -- there's a way to handle that kind of situation professionally and with basic human decency. But no. Instead of pulling the girl aside privately and asking her if I was copying -- like any decent teacher would -- Mrs. Arai did the unthinkable. In front of the entire class, in dead silence, she looked straight at the girl and asked out loud: "Is she copying off of you?" I'll never forget how humiliated I felt in that moment. and then the girl, who whatever reason hates me, said "Yeah." Just like that. Like it meant nothing. Like it wasn't my entire reputation, my self-worth, and my dignity being put on trial in front of 30 other kids. I was stunned. Embarrassed. Angry. And worst of all, I felt completely alone. Mrs. Arai didn't ask me if I had anything to say. She didn't give me a chance to explain. She didn't care. It was like she already made up her mind -- like she was waiting for a reason to call me out. To this day, that moment still stings. Not just because of the accusation -- but because of how she handled it. It was unprofessional, immature, and flat-out cruel. Teachers are supposed to support students, especially the ones who struggle. But instead, she used her power to embarrass me and tear me down. I've had some tough experiences in school, but that moment? That one stuck with me. It sort of changed me more than how I was. After that, I started to feel insecure -- not just about math, but about myself. About speaking up. About being seen. I carried that moment with me through the rest of middle school, and honestly, even now it lingers. Call me dramatic, say I'm just overreacting. I don't care, this is my story on how I was treated at this school. If I ever saw Mrs. Arai again -- which I probably won't -- just know this: I will never forgive you. I'll never forget how you made me feel in 6th grade. Like I didn't matter. Like I didn't deserve to be heard. You humiliated me in front of everyone and never looked back. You have no idea how much damage that moment caused. It wasn't just embarrassing -- it changed the way I saw myself. You made me feel small, like I was dumb and didn't belong. And you did it so casually, without care. I stayed quiet in school, not because I had nothing to say, but because I was scared it would be used against me. You created that fear. Teachers are meant to guide and support, not tear students down. But that's exactly what you did. And the worst part? I'm sure you don't even remember it. But I do. I always will. So no, I don't forgive you. Because it mattered. And it still does. But despite everything, I've grown. Slowly. Painfully. But I've grown. I'm learning to speak up. To stand tall -- even when it's hard. Especially when it's hard. Because I deserved better. Every student does. And now, I'm finally starting to believe that. To the students who had Mrs. Arai and had a better experience than I did -- that's great. I truly hope you were treated with the respect and support every student deserves. But just because your experience was different doesn't erase mine. It doesn't change what happened to me or how it made me feel. This is my story. My truth. And for the first time, I'm not going to hide it or shrink myself to make others more comfortable. Because I'm done carrying the silence that was forced on me. I'm done pretending that what happened didn't leave a mark. It did. But I'm learning that it doesn't define me. I'm still healing. Still learning. Still growing. But I'll never let someone like that break me again. And if anyone else out there has ever been made to feel the way I did -- I want you to know: you're not alone. Your voice matters. And you deserve to be heard. Always. To the students who've faced the same kind of treatment -- being bullied, feeling unseen, unheard, damaged, depressed, or like you're losing yourself... even if you've had thoughts of giving up -- just know this: you are not alone. You never were. And truthfully? There's so much more I've experienced at this school. This isn't just about one teacher. It's not just about the staff. There's a deeper pattern -- one that goes far beyond the classroom. But this... this is where I chose to start.

Hi! I am a former student from Rogich who is now homeschooled. I am going to tell you about my…read moreexperience here from grade. I am currently in 7th grade. 6th grade: Pretty fun and cool, I was in the bowling and theater club. Almost all of my teachers were very nice to me, but my math teacher at that time made me feel dumb. I won't be able to say the name for certain reasons, but this teacher would sort-of embarass me in front of everyone in the class and would make rude comments about me. There was this one time where I was trying to retake a math test. But as I was working, this teacher said " Hurry up, Charlie. I want to go home." Their tone in the comment made me feel stupid, rushed, and stressed out. 7th grade: Horrible in most ways. I was in the bowling club, and the teachers I had were still nice. But most of the kids there were very annoying, troublemaking, and loud. The overwhelming crowds and bad influences from most of the students made me feel very uncomfortable to the point where I had to get homeschooled after spring break. To any student who is wondering where I am, I'm homeschooled at home and can still come to after school programs/events. However, the principal, staff, and most of my teachers were very kind to me. The electives I had in 7th grade, which was beginning orchestra and student aids, were the best electives ever in my opinion. If you are about to be a 7th or 8th grader, I recommend you choose student aids because you can help a teacher of your choice and have lots of fun and free time to work on unfinished assignments. That was my review on Sig Rogich middle school.

I was shocked to hear boo's at graduation after they mentioned Mrs. B's name. Felt reassured that it wasnt just my opinion.

In the beginning I thought it was my daughter's problem -- she just didn't want to leave me. But after talking with the headmaster, I suddenly realized: it wasn't my daughter's issue -- it was their teaching philosophy. 1. They believed my daughter couldn't control her emotions, and they expected her to -- but she's only three, her brain isn't developed for that yet. Expecting a three-year-old to "control her emotions" is like expecting a one-year-old to control her bladder -- it's a physiological development issue. And the headmaster should know that. 2. My daughter didn't know any English when we first enrolled her. Within four months she could understand all the teacher's instructions and even speak short sentences. Yet the headmaster still said she wasn't speaking "long sentences." As an early-childhood educator, she failed to recognize this progress in a child entering a completely foreign environment. 3.Once she cried so badly that the headmaster came over to comfort her, but my daughter refused to talk to the headmaster and threw herself into the arms of her teacher. The headmaster concluded that my daughter lacked the normal ability to communicate. But my daughter had only met the headmaster twice -- she was basically a stranger to her -- so when she was sobbing, she rejected the stranger and ran to the teacher she knew. To me, that is a completely normal reaction -- yet in the headmaster's eyes, it meant my daughter "couldn't communicate properly." 4.The headmaster claimed my daughter would cry loudly, scream, and stomp her feet in class. But from a very young age she never behaved that way; even in the first two months at Challenger she only cried quietly out of fear -- never screamed or stomped. Only after being moved to a different class and failing to adapt to the new teacher's methods did she show those intense reactions. She was using her own way to cry out for help -- yet the headmaster and teachers didn't see it. At home she also became moody and unreasonable. Because of what the headmaster said, we decided to withdraw her. We enrolled her in a new school, and I was worried she might not adapt -- new environment, new teachers, new friends. But after only a few scattered days of crying, she quickly grew to love school! In talks with her new teacher, I, as a parent, deeply felt the teacher's love for children, her understanding and acceptance. She treated my daughter like a child -- a real child. That's why my daughter was able to feel safe and confident so fast. Now she's been at the new school for three months, and every day she's very happy -- her English communication is no problem at all. This has only strengthened my conviction: my daughter was never the problem -- it was Challenger's teaching philosophy.

I use quotes for black box because the program notes that the space is borrowed from the engineering teachers. The sound quality isn't what you would generally expect from a theatre. The space was set up well with risers so the audience had good sight lines. I'm guessing the space holds about 80 people the way it's configured. The school opened in August of 2010 so it's a new campus. The school is very clean and the parking is adequate for the number of students who drive. Being a lifelong educator, it pains me to see security cameras in the hallways and the parking lots, but I know it's part of what our society is. The campus is only about 2 miles from where I live so I'll be back and see some more of their productions. It's good to have an audience that is more than just the parents of the kids in the show. Well done, Wranglers Theatre!
