Lydia Cleveland is a senior who is taking Ms. Mitschmyer's Ceramics class this semester. For a recent assignment, she created a website that features her own work and the work of an artist, Bailey Arend, who also works in clay.
"What I especially liked about Lydia's website was how well thought out it was," said Mitschmyer. "Not only does she share and reflect on her creative process — including drawings of what she intends to do in clay and at what stage her pieces are in the design and making process — she also includes her SMART goals for the remaining weeks of the semester. This is exemplary work, both from an artistic viewpoint and from a web-based communications perspective."
Welcome to the ConVal High School Winter Fan Store!
This store will be open TWICE: Opening 11/20 and closing 11/28 for Christmas (we will message you if ANYTHING won't be ready in time - can happen if things are coming from west coast) and then again for later, December/January open/close for anyone who missed the first round!
To get to the sales, follow this link: https://cvhs-winter-22-23-fanwear.itemorder.com/shop/sale/.
IMPORTANT:
As you may be aware, there are still issues with the supply chain for apparel. At the time of the store opening, all items were available. This can change at the last moment - and we may have to change brands due to availability.
Images show the basic ConVal logo - you may chose THAT logo ("NO sport") or your WINTER sport of preference. We set the store up just a wee bit different this year with general items AND then a section for each sport. You can access a sport by scrolling down OR clicking on the tabs at the top.
Once the store closes, we will order products and as soon as they arrive, we will begin embroidering & screen printing.
All purchases will be bagged and delivered to the high school for pickup (we will email you with that information).
Feel free to call if you have any questions (603) 344-0423.

The ConVal Holiday Craft Fair took place on Saturday, November 19, in the ConVal gym.
There were holiday decorations handmade by crafters and makers of all sorts as well hand-knit and crocheted clothing items by local artisans. In addition, representatives from national brands and direct sales vendors presented a wide variety of merchandise. Former ConVal High School Director of School Counseling Kim Chandler reserved a space to share her book Covered Bridges of New Hampshire, a photographic history of all sixty-one covered bridges in the state, presented in then-and-now comparisons.
A student-run food court offered hot meals (soups, chili, mac & cheese, meatballs, kielbasa), sweet treats (cookies, muffins, and brownies), snacks (popcorn), as well as coffee, tea, hot cocoa, and soda.
The Holiday Craft Fair was organized by the Class of 2023. The class advisors, Rebecca Dunn and Ashley Jones, were happy to see the tradition continue under the leadership of the senior class. Said Jones, “The students put a lot of work into organizing and promoting the fair. Their enthusiasm was reflected in the great number of visitors who enjoyed the event.”

For the next several days, the stage in the Lucy Hurlin Theatre has been transformed into the interior of an isolated island castle — the setting of the ConVal Theatre Arts production of And Then There Were None …
Based on Agatha Christie’s 1939 mystery novel by the same title, the play follows a group of ten guests who have been invited to the castle by a mysterious stranger. Though none of the guests know each other, nor their host, it becomes clear in the course of the evening dinner that what they all have in common is that they bear responsibility for the deaths of others. One by one, the guests meet their fate under bizarre and inexplicable circumstances.
"I will be the first to admit to being the kind of person who watches a gruesome true crime documentary to 'relax' at the end of a long day," said Liz Moore. "Who doesn’t enjoy a great 'whodunnit' with a few twists, turns, and head-scratching clues to unravel?"
The play has generated extraordinary student interest and participation. "There are not words to properly describe how exciting it was to have 33 students audition (for only 11 roles)," Moore noted. "We have not had that many people audition for a straight play in my 13 years at ConVal. We’ve double-cast two previous productions, but NEVER triple, and never have we had specifically identified understudies."
The following table illustrates the various ensembles ("Stage Right," "Stage Left," and "Back Stage") and the student participants in their respective roles:

The play's production staff includes: Esther Janis, AJ Mackensen (Stage Managers); Jennifer Hopkins (Lighting Designer); Josh Ellis (Sound Designer); Elijah LaCroix (Sound Effects); Frank LeBlanc (Microphone Tech); Kettu Reynolds (Properties Manager); Isabella Stehly, Max DePoyster (Costume Design); Christian Hall, Mike Scaramellino, Jim Wickham (Set Construction); Anna-belle Buchanan, Kai Flynn, Alyssa Hamlin, Alex Williams (Crew); Jason Lambert (The Voice); and Liz Moore (Director, Season Producer).
Moore expressed gratitude to the many others who helped in the production: "We have had support from SO many within and without our building as we rebuild our program after the pandemic. We cannot thank you enough for your support for the Arts and all it brings us."
Opening night is November 3 at 7:00 pm, followed by performances on November 4 (7:00 pm) and on November 5 (2:00 pm and 7:00 pm). Tickets — $5 for students, staff, and seniors $5.00, $10 for adults — can be purchased online by clicking here.
On Friday, October 28, the ConVal Student Council hosted a Halloween-themed Mud Volleyball tournament.
Eight teams competed in three rounds of competition in single elimination.
Shrek's Swamp, led by team captain Jake Daniels won the overall tournament, and Mr. World Wide!, led by team captain Abi Lussier won best team costume.
Both the participants and the audience had a great time. Thank you, Student Council!
