OCVI Performing Arts

Maddy is an extraordinary person! It has been a pleasure having her as part of our Performing Arts program in Dance and Movement Studies.
Congratulations Maddy, we are excited to see all the exciting things your future holds ♥️

Well, it’s finally time to wave Mr. Rabjohn goodbye as he starts his retirement! Happy retirement from the entire PA family 🎶 🎭 🪩

Throughout his time at O’Neill, Mr. Rabjohn, a wonderful and loved-by-all drama teacher, has taken on the role of director in many musicals, lead O’Neill’s Theatre Troupe, and been a supporting teacher to all. He is often seen working late at the school for productions and coming in on the weekends for O’Neill shows - that is dedication. When asked why he does what he does, his reply is simply, “It’s for the kids. It’s always been the kids”. We will miss you Mr. Rabjohn. Good luck in all of your future projects!

Anyone out there have some memorable Rabjohn photos you’d like to share with us?
We love to include them in the upcoming retirement celebration!

Please submit them to this link:

Synopsis:

What’s your driving story? When did you get your first car? Did it take more than one try to get your license? Did your dad ever shout, “Do I have to stop the car?”

What does the car mean to you?

The car is freedom. The car is a trap. The car is your dream. The car is held together by duct tape. The car is being pulled over! The car is lost in the parking garage... somewhere... B10... D27... D37... 47...

What’s your driving story?
