Where you go to high school matters. Make it count at St. Joseph High School. St. Joseph High School is a Catholic, coeducational, college preparatory school in Trumbull, Connecticut, dedicated to forming young men and women who are prepared to meet the challenges of the collegiate world and beyond. Our aspirational academics are intentionally designed to stretch students beyond curriculum to become problem solvers, critical thinkers, language aficionados, art lovers, and lifelong learners. More than typical college prep, SJ offers an experiential education that grows between the textbooks and classrooms; between students and faculty mentors; between the locker room and the field; and between faith, friendships, and family. As the largest co-ed Catholic high school in Connecticut, SJ gives students the opportunity to learn and connect across cultures, religions, and borders in a faith-based community that joyfully welcomes students of all beliefs. Students seek out their talents across academics, athletics, arts, clubs, and service; strive for greatness by expanding their boundaries; and serve the common good by embracing our motto, “With Privilege Comes Responsibility.” Our renowned athletic program builds community, character, and discipline while teaching life lessons that extend far beyond championship banners. Through service initiatives and spiritual formation, students deepen shared values, explore their faith, and uncover a sense of purpose that prepares them for lifelong self-direction. St. Joseph Cadets are on a mission: to be their best selves and to make their mark on the world. Learn more at sjcadets.org. Phone Number: 203-378-9378 ext 308 Email Address: admissions@sjcadets.org

Shubert Theatre

New Haven Ballet Presents The Sleeping Beauty at the Shubert Theatre
This spring, New Haven Ballet invites audiences across Greater New Haven to experience the magic of classical ballet with The Sleeping Beauty, coming to the historic Shubert Theatre on Saturday, May 23 at 1:00 p.m.
Perfect for young audiences and longtime dance lovers alike, this enchanting production brings Princess Aurora’s beloved story to life through storybook magic and the sweeping score of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Thoughtfully adapted for today’s audiences, the performance offers a welcoming introduction to ballet while keeping all the beauty and wonder that has made this fairytale a classic for generations.
The heart of this production is the dancers themselves.
Students ages 4 to 18 will take the stage after months of dedication and artistic growth, sharing a performance that celebrates not only technique, but creativity, confidence, and joy. For many young performers, it’s a meaningful milestone and a chance to experience the excitement of live theater together.
For more than 40 years, New Haven Ballet has helped young dancers grow both on and off the stage, with many students continuing on to prestigious summer intensives, conservatories, and professional dance careers.
In addition to The Sleeping Beauty, the program will feature contemporary and Broadway inspired works, along with performances by the School’s Shared Ability artists. Together, the pieces reflect New Haven Ballet’s commitment to creating a space where every dancer can learn, grow, and shine.
Artistic Director Lisa Kim shares, “This performance is a chance for our students to come together and share what they have been working toward all year. We hope it inspires everyone in the audience.”
Following the performance, children and families are invited to meet the fairies from the ballet, a magical moment younger audience members won’t soon forget.
With a running time of approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, including a 20-minute intermission, the performance is ideal for both first time balletgoers and devoted fans of dance.
Tickets start at $19 (plus ticketing fees) and are available at <a href="https://shubert.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">shubert.com</a>.
New Haven Ballet welcomes new students throughout the year, with summer programs offering dancers of all levels the opportunity to learn, grow, and build confidence through dance.
Reserve your tickets early and join us for an afternoon filled with music, magic, and the joy of live performance.
