Our 5th grade strings and band put on a wonderful performance this morning, hoping to be able to perform this evening. We'll try again tomorrow night.
When you do attend, be sure to view the artwork and take home your child's ceramic project. We look forward to seeing you and hearing our performers tomorrow night.
We'll see all of our 5th grade families for Celebration of Learning on Monday, 6/12, when those not in band/strings can take home their ceramic piece.
