Week 12: Scandal ! 

Now, when I went into the choir room this morning to post our nominations for glee club captain...I was met with something that disturbed me, kids. A “Who’s Hot/Who’s Not” list of all of the kids in the New Directions. It’s got a Top 10 Hots and a Top 10....well, Nots. If you must see it, it’s here: 

Tearing each other down is not something I’m going to tolerate in this club. We’re a team. And to the person that made this, Figgins wants you suspended and I’m expected to turn someone in by the end of the week. Now, all of you that have been nominated for captain (Raphael Berry, Finn Hudson, Sugar Motta, and Blaine Anderson) are gonna need to show some leadership skills in finding out who made this list -- welcome to politics. Polls will be open on Friday. Til then, our theme this week is Scandal. Anything salacious, reputation-related, etc. since you all seem to want to pit people against each other. I’m extremely disappointed, kids. We are not going to get to Regionals divided like this.

Week 11: Tiktok ! 

Alright guys, we’re coming right off of an amazing Sectionals win, I’m newly single, we deserve some fun am I right?! That’s why this week our assignment is all about letting loose and having fun. We’re doing....*drumroll* Tiktok songs! Any song popularized on the social media platform is fair game, and even film some TikToks for the fun of it! It’s also helpful because I got our score card back from Sectionals and, though we may have won, our lowest scores were in choreography...So we’ll be spending the week learning TikTok dances, too! I’ll be teaching Savage, Say So, the WAP...you name it! Can’t wait to see what you guys bring to the table in our first week back from winning our first-ever competition, posted under the tag week 011: TikTok !  Maybe we’ll get to use some of our new moves at Regionals!

weekly gLeecap !!

So for their first week, the New Directions did ‘First Impression’ songs where they got to know each other! They had a lot of fun with it, giving fun flirtations like Puck to Lauren, lighthearted rejections like Lauren to Puck, and even playful draggings of each other’s personalities like Jesse to Myron. Talk about some first-week bonding! It was fun to watch, even if outside of the choir room things got a little dicey -- Coach Sylvester has apparently been wreaking havoc on our glee club...Fat-shaming and Cheerio bullying alike. Good thing her captain has a spotless record, right? Wrong. Quinn’s pregnant and Finn is obviously not the father. Y i k e s. 

Everything culminated in our group number, Nice to Meet Ya by Niall Horan with featured soloists Sam Evans, Blaine Anderson, and Tina Cohen-Chang. 

And that’s what you missed on....GLEEDORPG!

weekly gLeecap ! 

Coming off of our Sectionals win, the New Directions’ mission this week was to let loose, have fun, and work on our choreo! And we did that and then some. Firstly, we welcomed a new face to the glee club, Jessie St. James and she seems like she doesn’t have any ulterior motives at all! Though, she might have history with one of our glee club members. Hmmm... Quinn told her parents about the baby and now she’s been kicked out and is living with Puck. Yikes. And the glee club has kind of turned against Raph after he outed Quinn’s baby daddy drama to Finn. Will that mean he’s no longer a shoe-in for glee club captain? Time will tell! The New Directions showed off their new dance moves with Say So by Doja Cat, with Raphael, Jessie, and Quinn as featured soloists, with Santana taking on the rap! 

And that’s what you missed on...GLEEDORPG!

weekly gLeecap ! 

This week, the glee club tackled some teen angst by performing songs from all their favorite teen movies! We had performances of songs from Easy A, Twilight, 13 Going on 30, Juno and many more! And can I just say we really tapped into our -- er, your complicated and vulnerable teenage emotions? I am so proud of all of you! We stripped things down for our group number this week, teen movie anthem, Kiss Me by Sixpence None the Richer with Tina Cohen-Chang, Kit Hummel, Raphael Berry and Finn Hudson on lead vocals. 

And that’s what you missed on...GLEEDORPG!

weekly gLeecap ! 

Lots went down this week, New Directions! First, after I, Mr. Schuester, themed our glee club week ‘Secrets’ week, everyone revealed some juicy secrets! Some childhood traumas, some intimacy issues, some secrets about...magic cats. And all of Quinn’s pregnancy drama came crashing down cause Raphael took it upon himself to reveal her secret to Finn, resulting in Finn singing a truly NSFS (not safe for school) song about her best friend right before pummeling him to the ground in the choir room! Yikes! After all that, Quinn and Puck decided to tell her parents together and we’ll only see what can come of that. Since he stirred up all the mess, the glee club seems to be turning against Raph who also seems to be campaigning for captain of the New Directions! We’ll see how that pans out. Word is there’s a new girl in McKinley, and she’s got her eye on the New Directions. But what would the lead singer of Vocal Adrenaline want with us anyway? Is she here for the right reasons? Time can only tell. 

And that’s what you missed on...GLEEDORPG!

Sectionals Recap ! 

Alright, New Directions, today we went up against Jane Addams High and the Haverbrook Deaf Choir in our snazzy competition outfits. Since our first choice of Don’t Stop Believin’ was snatched by one of the opposing teams, we last-minute had to come up with a whole new setlist and this is what we competed with: 

Finn Hudson and Raphael Berry sang lead on our opening, a beautiful arrangement of Florence + the Machine’s Cosmic Love. 

Blaine Anderson tore down the house with his solo, Falling by Harry Styles. 

And the entire group closed us out with MIKA’s We Are Golden, with featured solos from everyone! (But primarily our Berry/Hudson duo, as expected.) 

Our performance was riveting, vocally impressive, full of energy and heart...it really brought a tear to my eye. 

And we placed...1st! 

Congratulations, New Directions! I’m so proud of you! Next stop, Regionals!

day of silence. 

Hi, all. We’ve decided that the gleedorpg dashboard will be going dark for 24 hours, starting at 6am PST today in honor of Naya Rivera. We’ll be taking this time to mourn, reflect on her talent that made Glee what it was, and let our members just breathe in the midst of such a heightened time in the world as it is already without the added pressures of being on the dash. Regular activity will resume tomorrow at 6am PST, and if anyone (members, lurkers, etc.) needs to reach out and chat, you know where to find us.  ❤︎ 

love,  the admin team.  ❤︎
