A Sweet Performance at Convocation: Willy, Charlie and the Oompah Loompahs
During our division-wide Convocation in August, Central
Office entertained the group with a performance of Willy Wonka and the
Chocolate Factory. In our version, teaching candidates for IWCS were
put through several tests at the factory in order to see who was worthy
of working for our school system. Augustus Grump, the Boringard
sisters, Veruca Brickbrain and Mike PBL, as well as Charlie and Willy,
took us on an adventure, complete with a chocolate river, human
blueberries, shrink rays and trap doors. We even had our very own
Oompah Loompah chorus! Every member of Central Office participated in
the production, whether in front of or behind the curtain. It's our way
of sharing an important message in a light-hearted way, while modeling
the importance of taking risks. I am so proud of the work of each
person involved in the skit and I'm excited to be able to share the
video of the performance with you. We had a few microphone issues that were resolved about mid-way through, so you may want to select the closed captioning feature in order to catch all the dialogue. Enjoy!
