Only two teams in the state are chosen for this competition. Last month, 13 Kohler actresses pro- duced five plays of drama explor- ing important turning points in a girl's/woman's life. Several Kohler students have excelled in spelling and geography bees, numerous students qualify each year for state solo and ensem- ble, and Kohler’s trophy case is a testament to the many talented Kohler athletics that have brought home state awards, with some of them earning full scholarships to compete in their sport in college. “There is a newness in the air because so many things feel possi- ble and if we put time, thought, and care to how we serve students in the pursuit of learning–they will be inspired to leap into the future with confidence and pride,” stated Quynh Trueblood, Kohler Super- intendent and High School Princi- pal. “What I love about Kohler Schools the most is how much our school community cares for stu- dents, their families, and each other.

Free film at John Michael KohlerArts Center explores the life andtimes of Wonder Woman

The fascinating evolution of thecomic-book character WonderWoman is laid bare for audiencesat the John Michael Kohler ArtsCenter Community Cinemascreening of Wonder Women! TheUntold Story of American Super-heroines, Tuesday, March 5, at 7p.m. and Wednesday, March 6, atnoon. Both screenings are free,open to the public, and followed bya discussion of the film.

Wonder Women! The UntoldStory of American Superheroinestraces Wonder Woman’s many in-carnations, from her birth in the1940s to her 1960s role as a fash-ion boutique owner to her resurrec-tion by the women’s liberationmovement.

The film offers an enlighteningand entertaining counterpoint tothe male-dominated superhero cat-egory. Viewers go behind thescenes with TV stars Lynda Carter(Wonder Woman) and LindsayWagner (The Bionic Woman),comic writers and artists, and real-life women of influence such asGloria Steinem and KathleenHanna.

“I loved the idea of looking atsomething as populist as comics toreveal our cultural obsessions, andin particular, how women’s roleshave changed over time,” says thefilm’s co-director Kristy Guevera-Flanagan. “For some it’s LaraCroft, for others it’s Buffy theVampire Slayer, but we all needthose iconic heroes that tell us wehave the power to slay our dragonsand don’t have to wait around to berescued.”

Community Cinema films areshown in the John Michael KohlerArts Center Theatre, 608 NewYork Ave., in downtown Sheboy-gan. For additional information,call (920) 458-6144 or visitwww.jmkac.org. Community Cin-ema is a national documentaryscreening series sponsored locallyby the Arts Center, the IndependentTelevision Service (ITVS) and theEmmy Award-winning PBS seriesIndependent Lens.

for best times in FWD, RWD andAWD vehicles.”
