CBNA Theatre Program Features “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown”

/in /by

Northwood, New Hampshire… Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s theatre program is pleased to announce their 2021 fall musical You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown! This spirited musical about a beloved icon of American popular culture features music, scenery, and acting by CBNA students that will knock your socks off! Come join Snoopy, Linus, Lucy, Schroeder, and the rest of the Peanuts gang as they search for the meaning of true happiness.

The CBNA Theatre program participants are thrilled to perform for a live audience again this fall. Junior Clair Burbank (playing Sally), freshman Ethan Welch (ensemble and swing), and freshman Emma Perry (ensemble) all agreed that they loved, “…just getting to play being kids and without having any big worries.” Junior Sam Marcotte, who plays Charlie Brown, loves the sense of community this production has had, while Junior Chris Reed, who plays Linus, echoed those thoughts, noting that, “… he just loves getting to work with this group of performers and crew.” All of the actors agree that the set and costumes, and especially the dog house, make rehearsals even more fun. The production’s logo was student designed by CBNA Junior Ian Helm.

This production is directed by CBNA faculty member Jennifer Moynihan, with additional faculty support from choreographer Kolby Hume and music director Erin Davis. Moynihan notes:

For me, I would like to say how lucky I have been to work with such a dedicated group of students who have learned so many aspects of theatre beyond acting in this show. We have had amazing volunteers in Danielle Muir and her artistic eye, and Dana Haley who helped us build some of our set pieces. Erin Davis is our new music director and she has been a wonderful asset to our students in learning the music and learning how to make character and music work together. Kolby Hume is the other essential piece of our puzzle- she choreographs, costumes, and takes care of many behind the scenes aspects, which allows me to focus on the big picture and dedicate time to blocking and character work with students. Without many dedicated hands this performance would not be possible.

Evening performances will take place Friday, November 12 and Saturday, November 13 at 7 pm, with a matinee performance on Saturday, November 13 at 1 pm. Mobile tickets are available online now. Tickets will also be available for cash purchase one hour before curtain on the day of the performances. Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for students/seniors, and $5 for youth. This show is appropriate for kids of all ages. Seating is general admission, although special need requests will be honored when possible.

The logo for this production, shown here, was designed by Coe-Brown Junior Ian Helm.

Author Spotlight: Jarrett J. Krosoczka

/in /by

Hello reader. My name is Lucas Laliotis and welcome to the 1st installment of Author Spotlight. For the remainder of the 2020-2021 school year, I will highlight a living author who has impacted the literary world in a unique way. Our 1st highlight is an author from New England, Jarrett J. Krosoczka. Born and raised in Worcester Massachusetts, Krosoczka has written some great books, most notably, his graphic novel series Lunch Lady. In some of his books, his Worcester life is evident. I actually have one of the Lunch Lady books signed by him and it’s very close to my heart. In his 1st book, Good Night, Monkey Boy, the book is dedicated to his grandparents. At 1st glance, it may seem that he was very attached to them, but if you read Krosoczka’s graphic memoir Hey, Kiddo, the truth is revealed. I will touch upon that in a minute, but for now, here’s some more information. Though he is in his early 40s, he looks much younger. From posts on his Instagram and TikTok, he is a charming, funny and humble man. But he has a history not many readers know. In Hey, Kiddo, we learn about his childhood. The dedication isn’t a metaphor on his attachment to his grandparents, but is a literal statement. Jarrett was raised by his grandparents because his mother was a heroin addict. She had made many poor decisions in her life. When I 1st read this and realized that this was the guy who wrote Lunch Lady, I was very, very taken aback. The book, unlike most memoirs of this style such as Smile or El Deafo, starts with the life of his grandfather Joseph and grandmother Shirley during the Great Depression and the war.  Through the book, there is a timeline that is evident, going from the Depression era to Jarrett’s birth and finally to his graduation from high school. But he still has questions. Near the end of the book, he meets his birth father. I’m not going in depth because I want you to read it or at least listen to the audio book. The writing is great. But nothing compares to the art. Krosoczka’s other books have a very clean art style, with flat, crisp lines. But in this book, rather than using traditional digital work, uses ink. The book has a dedicated section to the art at the end. These lines make everything smeared and chaotic while making the characters and set pieces clear, which is a perfect metaphor for his childhood. I felt emotional after reading this book. Next time you’re in the library, head over to the graphic novel section and if it’s available, check it out or ask the librarians to place a hold for you because this is one book you do not want to miss.

Does the New Schedule Work?

/in /by

At the beginning of the school year, a dramatic change happened with Coe-Brown’s curriculum. The once six-classes-in-one-school-day-schedule changed into four. To everyone this was monumental. Never before had anyone from CBNA seen something like this. Although the schedule is new and different, was the change all that bad? 

After surveys and brief interviews with students, teachers, and staff members, the majority of Coe-Brown believes that the new schedule is for the better. Specifically, the point that was most mentioned with the new schedule was time. “There is more time to do everything now” one student said. Every class has an extended length of time, which was basically the length of a double period last year. With the longer periods, more learning can get done at a more relaxed pace. Teachers can take the time to go over homework and review, without the forty-five-minute pressure from last year. Another benefit for teachers with the new schedule is more quality time to teach their students. 

Teachers aren’t the only ones who feel the relief of the four-period schedule. Since classes rotate to almost every other day, students have more time to get their assignments completed. Another point that was made by a student was, “I no longer feel like I have to sprint, just to make it to my class on time”.  Students can now walk, almost at leisure, to their next class while also being able to take a bathroom break and prepare for their upcoming lesson. 

Granted some people might have had a problem with adjusting to the new schedule and still might not like a different style of learning. Certain subjects such as math, history, and electives might have had more difficulty adjusting since the classes are lecture-based. Mr. Usigner reported that “ there has been no falter or change to the course, and that the curriculum was still on schedule”. Another problem some students seemed to have was the increased amount of time in class made the day feel longer. On the contrary, one student mentioned that “since the day consisted of only four classes, the school day seems shorter”. Although the classes are longer, there is a smaller amount of classes, this was the trade-off. 

Overall, the pros outweigh the cons of the new schedule. The pros of the new schedule include more time for all aspects of the school, a better quality of teaching for teachers and learning for the student, less pressure, and more time to get work done. The only possible cons are possible courses behind schedule, which hasn’t really been happening, and students feeling like the class is longer. This new schedule has been very beneficial to Coe-Brown Northwood Academy. Who knows, maybe we might stick with the new schedule?

COE-BROWN NORTHWOOD ACADEMY STUDENT-ATHLETE NAMED
GATORADE NEW HAMPSHIRE GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY PLAYER OF THE YEAR

CHICAGO (April 8, 2021) — In its 36th year of honoring the nation’s best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company today announced Addison Cox of Coe-Brown Northwood Academy as its 2020-21 Gatorade New Hampshire Girls Cross Country Player of the Year. Cox is the first Gatorade New Hampshire Girls Cross Country Player of the Year to be chosen from Coe-Brown Northwood Academy.

The award, which recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field, distinguishes Cox as New Hampshire’s best high school girls cross country player. Now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade National Girls Cross Country Player of the Year award to be announced in April, Cox joins an elite alumni association of state award-winners in 12 sports, including Lukas Verzbicas (2010-11, 2009-10, Carl Sandburg High School, Orland Park, Ill.), Megan Goethals (2009-10, Rochester High School, Rochester Hills, Mich.), Jordan Hasay (2008-09, Mission College Preparatory Catholic High School, San Luis Obispo, Calif.) and Chris Derrick (2007-08, Neuqua Valley High School, Naperville, Ill.).

The 5-foot-4-inch senior distance talent capped an unbeaten campaign by winning the NHIAA Meet of Champions this past season, breaking the tape in a scholastic personal-best of 18:01.20 and leading the Black Bears to second place as a team. The clocking marked the state’s fastest girls 5K in 2020 and Cox represents the first girl from Coe-Brown to take home the MOC crown. Also the 2020 NHCC Runner of the Year and a four-time All-Division 2 selection, Cox captured the Division 2 title as well last fall, outpacing her next-closest competitor by 6.90 seconds with a time of 18:21.90—the fastest all-divisions time of the day—and sparking Coe-Brown to the divisional team title. Her state meet speed rating according to Dyestat and TullyRunners.com ranked No. 92 nationally among the Top 100 fastest competitors in the country. The season was one of redemption for Cox, who battled the effects of Lyme Disease throughout 2019.

President of her school’s Student-Athlete Leadership Team (SALT), Cox has volunteered as a peer consultant at the Coe-Brown Writing Center and on behalf of the New Hampshire Thunder Youth Track program. She is also a member of both the National Honor Society and Healthcare Occupation Students of America (HOSA), a student-leadership organization that promotes career opportunities in the healthcare industry and strives to enhance the delivery of quality health care to all people. “I don’t mean to sound flip, but frankly, this one is easy,” said Scott McGrath, head coach at Oyster River High School. “Addison won the New Hampshire Meet of Champions by 12 whole seconds [12.4]. She won the Division 2 state championship the week prior and ran the fastest all-divisions time on the divisional course. Addison had a perfect season individually. She was undefeated in the state of New Hampshire and is most deserving of recognition as the Gatorade State Player of the Year.”

Cox has maintained a 99.1 average in the classroom. She has signed a National Letter of Intent to run on scholarship at the University of New Hampshire this fall.

The Gatorade Player of the Year program annually recognizes one winner in the District of Columbia and each of the 50 states that sanction high school football, girls volleyball, boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, boys and girls soccer, baseball, softball, and boys and girls track & field, and awards one National Player of the Year in each sport. The selection process is administered by the Gatorade Player of the Year Selection Committee, which works with top sport-specific experts and a media advisory board of accomplished, veteran prep sports journalists to determine the state winners in each sport.

Cox joins recent Gatorade New Hampshire Girls Cross Country Players of the Year Caroline Fischer (2019-20, Bishop Guertin High School), Sophia Reynolds (2018-19, Merrimack Valley High School) and Jacqueline Gaughan (2017-18 & 2016-17, Exeter High School), among the state’s list of former award winners.

Through Gatorade’s cause marketing platform “Play it Forward,” Cox has the opportunity to award a $1,000 grant to a local or national youth sports organization of their choosing. Cox is also eligible to submit a 30-second video explaining why the organization they chose is deserving of one of twelve $10,000 spotlight grants, which will be announced throughout the year. To date, Gatorade Player of the Year winners’ grants have totaled more than $2.7 million across 1,117 organizations.

Since the program’s inception in 1985, Gatorade Player of the Year award recipients have won hundreds of professional and college championships, and many have also turned into pillars in their communities, becoming coaches, business owners and educators.
