Megan Siatczynski, junior, performs as Frances in the One Act play “The Light Burns Blue.” Figg-Franzoi is the director of the production.

Drama teacher Amelia Figg-Franzoi was reinstated to her full -time teaching position on Thursday, Nov. 17 following a 10-day suspension during an investigation surrounding an old student-led drama club ritual that dated past her tenure at the school.

In an email to students Principal Brett Bowers said, “Ms.Figg will return to her full range of professional duties, both as teacher and in her role as theatre director.”

Figg-Franzoi returned just one day before her One Act class was scheduled to go to their state competition on Friday, Nov. 17. She is currently in Whitewater with the class for competition.

In light of previous announcements about the postponement of the musical, there will  be a meeting on Monday, Nov. 27 after school about the musical “Shrek.”
