HUZZAH! AUDITIONS ARE COMING!

Swartz Creek High School students — think Shakespeare is overrated? Love musicals? Want to dance, sing, act, build, paint, sew, run lights, or just be part of something ridiculously fun? Then Something Rotten! wants YOU!

Auditions are September 14th from 4:00 - 7:00 pm. Prepare 32 bars of a song from a musical (or about 1 minute), be ready to read a few scenes, and prepare yourself for a brief dance audition. New to theatre? Even better! We’d love to welcome new students interested in joining the cast, crew, or Drama Club.

The show runs November 20th - 22nd at the Swartz Creek Performing Arts Center.

⚠️ Something Rotten! is PG-13 due to mild language.

Questions? Interested in getting involved? Contact Mr. Love at [email protected].

Come join us — because sometimes the next big thing is a musical!

Swartz Creek High School was placed in a brief Hold so emergency personnel could respond to a MEDICAL situation. During a Hold, students remain safely in classrooms and continue normal activities while hallways are kept clear so first responders can provide care quickly and privately.

Unfortunately, we had to reschedule our photographer today. We will share an update when the photographer will be here to take school pictures.

We Want to See Your First-Day Photos!

We’ve created a new First Day of School 2026–2027 sign featuring our CREEK Code, and we’d love to see our Dragons with it!

Save the attached sign and print it for your child to hold in their first-day photo.

No printer? No problem! Save the sign to your phone or computer and add it to the first-day picture you take.

Then email your photo to [email protected] with your child’s first name, and we will feature it on our district page.

Whether it’s a very first day of school, the start of senior year, or somewhere in between, we’re excited to have our Dragons back together.

It’s a great day to be a Dragon! ❤️🤍🐉
