Quotes from CCHS Drama department:

Shakespeare quotes about…

• Youth: “Youth is full of sport, age's breath is short; youth is nimble, age is lame; Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; Youth is wild, and age is tame.”

• Humanity: “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.“
• Mind: “Ideas are the very coinage of your brain.”
• Destiny:“It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.”

How to get involved:

Most advice received by faculty for students that aren't enjoying high school is to get involved. Yet how do you get involved? I believe that it's easier said than done. Yet with club rush coming up there are plenty of opportunities to be able to see where you can get involved.  No matter what things you have or haven’t done there is always something new to try. Just as Mrs. Kohler said “try new things.” There is always a chance for new experiences and new skills you can discover. Join a club! You’ll meet new people and get to experience new things. It does seem scary and nerve wracking to go and try new things. Yet it's better to try than not to try new things. You never know what will happen unless you try. ​

Drama department the shakespeare showcase
​By:Lily hersch
published:09/28/23

“To be, or not to be: that is the question.” This quote is arguably one of the most renowned and recognized lines of English literature, said by genius playwright William Shakespeare. Though several hundred years gone, his legacy lives on within the Corner Canyon Drama Department: the Shakespeare Showcase.
The Shakespeare Showcase is one of CCHS’ most grandiose productions, with the Theatre team competing with other teams throughout the state for the best Shakespearean performance at the Utah Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City, Utah from October 5th-7th. The play features monologues, 2-3 person scenes, Draper Park 8th graders performing sonnets, and the ensemble scene of Titus Andronicus. This year’s high school performance will be October 4th at 6 pm in the CCHS auditorium for free admission, and includes the Choir and Dance team as well as Theatre.
“My favorite part about Shakespeare Showcase is how it brings so many different people together-middle school theater, high school theater, and anyone that wants to watch!” comments Kaiya Sharp, a CCHS junior and theater actress since 6th grade.
This Showcase isn’t just any high school performance; Corner Canyon Theatre has been rehearsing since July to perfect their craft and make the home of the Chargers proud. The team has won several accolades over the years for their enchanting performances, such as in 2021 achieving 1st place sweepstakes, 2nd place ensemble scenes, 1st place minstrel, and in 2022 placing 2nd place sweepstakes, 2nd place ensemble scenes, and several more. 
“I think we have some really unique pieces, and we’re bringing stuff to the competition that people haven’t seen done before. It’s going to be really fun.” says senior Chloe Scott, who will be in this year’s competition for the second time, as well as being a CCHS theater member since freshman year. 
Given Corner Canyon Theater Department’s prestige, this year’s performance will undoubtedly be one to remember. With enthralling scenes, incredible voices, dazzling backdrops, new show additions, and more, you don’t want to miss it.

    Now that we are heading back into school, clubs at Corner Canyon are finally being introduced. Club Rush is an event at Corner Canyon that happens every year. This event consists of introducing the current year's clubs, having a table set up for every club and trying to convince the students to join their club. Club rush is something many people enjoy. During this week of club rush, you see many students signing up for different clubs and activities, and having a good time, and usually when joining a club you get an award for it, like candy, gum, and more.
    This year we had a series of clubs that consisted of the math club, pickleball club, badminton club, film club, DECA, HOSA, anime club, art club, beads and besties, book club, and it can go on and on, there is even a math club. Most clubs at the school that will have a table during the lunches will offer candy to those who sign up, and it is a smart business plan considering most likely 100% of the students at Corner Canyon will definitely sign up to a club to get some candy. 
    Lots of clubs, like the debate club, are very determined to find people to join their club. 
Hearing from the debate team members was very interesting, they told me about the experience of setting up, and how they felt about club rush, a quote from Aiden Messarian states, “I’m glad I went”, and in those descriptive words, it shows that the experience made him feel glad. Personally, as one of the people who attended the club rush, I thought that it was very interesting and an enjoyable experience. Sondor Battulga who is part of the HOSA club told me that joining clubs made her feel more part of the community of Corner Canyon.
    Clubs definitely bring people together and make people more prone to making friends. The more clubs you join the more people you have a chance to socialize with. So the more clubs you join the better.

OUR ThEme and
​Student Body Officers
"We are one!"  published:September, 9th, 2023.
WRITTEN By: Ella Shearer 

Here at Corner Canyon High School we have 10 SBO’s and 19 class officers who dedicate countless hours to make our school the best it can be. During a three day summer summit that all the members of student government attend, they prepare for the school year and come up with a school wide theme for the year. The theme that was chosen this year is “We are one”.
​     After talking with Senior class president JJ Pratt, to him, “We are one” means, “Everyone can be included as part of our school culture whether it’s at football games, dances, or clubs.”
“We are one” means a group of people coming together to accomplish a common goal, overcome obstacles, and working together to create something successful together. In the context of high school, working together to be successful is what “we are one” means. This meaning can come into play in an educational setting, a sports setting, or anything else where a group of people will work together to strengthen one another. Many will say that “We are one” is similar to unity. In the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the definition of unity is “the quality or state of not being multiple: oneness”. Another definition given is “the quality or state of being made one: unification”. In the context of Corner Canyon High School, the goal that all of student government has for our school this year is to become unified as a school, and work together to accomplish all that we want, and can accomplish.
After a heartbreaking loss of a Corner Canyon student, the theme became very evident in the school’s student body, and showed that we are in fact one. Student government wanted to come up with a way to honor this student’s life and landed on all students wearing his favorite color green to school. Not only did our school become one, but other schools became one with our school by wearing green to school and football games that day. Tyler Balls, 2023-2024 activities SBO says, “We stand together even through tough times.” This principle of standing together through tough times quickly became evident at the start of the school year as the student body came together as one to show their support.
