Photo slideshow: Choir rehearses for Fall Concert
READY, SET, GO: On Oct. 20, the all male kingsmen honors choir recorded the vocals for the upcoming virtual Fall Concert that will take place on Nov. 1. They all sing their song “Homeward Bound” with their mask on and while maintaining social distancing standards. Sophomore Benjamin Thai, senior Justin Vu, and senior Kenny Pham talk between takes of their song. “I missed the live audience from in-person concerts, but I was also less nervous singing for the virtual concert.” Benjamin Thai said.

Throughout the play, Imhoff performed musical solos as Prospero’s servant spirit. “It felt so refreshing to return to in-person plays,” Imhoff said. “Having an audience to interact with made theatre feel like theatre again. I felt so blessed to be doing live theatre with an amazing cast and crew. Everyone killed it and I was so happy to work with them. You should have seen Mrs. Slay, [she] was so enthusiastic and pumped to get back.”](https://thescarletscroll.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/05DECCE2-D07B-485B-A3C4-25B376EA4DF5-475x327.jpeg)

Staff members are expected to participate in Kids Club events, including videos, skits, games, and other activities. These activities help the kids understand the topics being discussed, such as the seven sacraments and their purposes, and set examples for the kids. “You get to work with [people] your own age, and it’s really just tons of fun,” Sister Paula said.](https://thescarletscroll.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/sacredheart-475x316.jpg)
![SMILE FOR THE CAMERA: The 1988-89 yearbook shows the first Scarlet Scroll staff with their advisor, Susan Diaz. As a new publication, the newspaper staff had to put extra care into making sure what they were reporting on set a positive precedent for the paper on campus. “The administration at the time was very afraid that the Scroll would immediately turn into a format where students could just take pop shots at [them],” Gene Jimenez, a member of the 1988-89 staff, said. “And when we showed them that we could actually produce [something] as semi-responsible adults, it was a big deal.”](https://thescarletscroll.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/doc00617420211117152104-copy-317x475.jpg)
