The play was a success today!!  I hope you have heard all about it from your children.  They all did such a wonderful job and the lower school students really enjoyed it!!!!  Thank you to the moms who were able to help us today.  Please remember to send your children ready to go as far as stars with turtlenecks, shorts and tights, stars with turtleneck and tights and boys with shorts and white tee shirt.  Call me if you have any questions.  I can't wait for Friday!!

We are so excited about our first performance tomorrow.  Please remember to send uniforms for your children to change into after the play.  Girls may want to wear a little makeup for the stage.  Please make sure your child is well rested and ready to go!!  I can't wait for parents to see the play on Friday.
