This Tuesday, the eighth graders of Saxe Middle School band took to the NCHS stage alongside their older counterparts, following the schools’ eleven-year tradition. The ensembles first played separately (one song by the eighth graders and five by the high school students) then came together, 123 people in all, for the last two pieces.

I’m excited about this issue of the Courant. More excited than usual, even. And that is because I am an avid Harry Potter fan. If you have gone on nchscourant.com lately, and I’m assuming that you have since that is where you are reading this, than you will have seen that we have circa three different articles up about the beginning of the end of HP. We’ve got Serra’s, the blogs editor, blog post on how to live Harry.

Since the first film was released in Nov. 2001, the Harry Potter series has driven thousands to the theaters. The first of seven novels, Harry Potter and Sorcerer’s (Philosopher’s) Stone, was written by British author J.K. Rowling, published in 1997, and the series has since gained worldwide recognition both in print and on the big screen. This past Friday, Nov. 19, the first part of the final movie premiered at 12:01 a.m. The anticipated Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part One brought many fans out to theaters, despite the late hour.
