What To Expect From Wicked Part 2
While both Wicked movies were filmed together, Wicked Part 2 is scheduled to be released on November 21, 2025, and many people are wondering what to expect from it.

The Usefulness Of School
By: Mary Vega (Web Editor)
Every student has had the moment in class when they think “Why do I need to know this?” or “I’m never going to use this when I’m an adult” and while school is important, it is true that very often the things we learn in school aren’t going to be useful to us outside of class.
