"Winter Magic"

What a success! The students performed wonderfully and we had nearly 1000 friends and family watching the 0ver 300 students. Great Job! Thanks to our PTA and Volunteers for the wonderful decorations and to Mrs. San Martine and Mr. Sweeney from Simons for allowing us to use their gym. We couldn't have done it without you!
