New to the Palmer Trinity Parent Association
(PTPA) this year is the Falcon Dads Club. These
grill master dads gather regularly to socialize,
network and support various PTS events. The
group works closely with the Spirit Committee to
support events including athletics and visual and
performing arts. This year, Falcon Dad Club made
their debut by grilling burgers and hot dogs at athletic
and music events, as well as other activities.
To join the Falcon Dads Club or volunteer at one
of our many PTPA committees, please contact
Director of Parent Relations Denise Gallardo
at dgallardo@palmertrinity.org.
For this year's spring
production, approximately
75 students were involved
in bringing High School
Musical to life. Students
worked hard to not "stick
to the status quo" by
presenting a new twist to
the 2006 Disney classic. The
cast and crew, which included
R IC A R DO A L ZE T TA ' 2 2 and JUL I A DA
C O S TA ' 2 6 as leads, spotlighted the cult favorite's
scheming sibling duo, a surprise appearance by faculty
member Michael Stoddard as Ms. Darbus, and of
course, plenty of awkward teenage
moments. The performance
took place at the South
Miami Dade Cultural Arts
Center with close to 1,000
patrons in attendance.
In addition to High
School Musical, this
year's lineup also
featured student-led
performances in the PTS
Studio Theater presented
by the Advanced Production Class. "Alex," written
by AVA-R IL E Y MIL E S ' 2 2 is about the experience of
a high school girl who discovers herself through
poetry. "Vanities," directed by
L AUR A F UR NIS S-ROE ' 2 2 , with
lighting design and stage
management by seniors, is
the story of three friends
as they journey from
high school to adulthood
and all the complications
of relationships.
