Wednesday, February 11th, HP Arts and Adrienne Conklin introduced our 2nd and 3rd graders to the Fort Worth Children's Opera in the performance of The Ugly Duckling.  This opera is based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen and composed by Andrew Duncan.  The Ugly Duckling promotes reading, working together, and accepting differences in other people while exposing the students to the artistic medium of Opera. 

Thursday, February 12th, HP Arts and Adrienne Conklin introduced our 4th graders to Shakespeare Dallas: Oh This Learning, What a Thing It Is!  This production focuses on the language of Shakespeare with period costumes, beautiful scenery panels and audience participation.  A great way to meet Shakespeare!
