Fourth grade will show off their robots and our fifth grade will perform an original snow skit. The show will conclude with a performance by the middle school bucket drumming ensemble and the little Trebles and Crescendos chorus. Doors open at 5:45 and students should report to the recess doors at that time for to sign in. Mr. D is requesting help from parents to assist with concessions, monitoring children in classrooms, and to serve as ushers. (Note: Parents who volunteer will be able to watch their child perform!) http://www.signupgenius.com/go/8050f45a8a72bab9-evening

At our annual fundraiser, students will have a chance to shop for gifts for their family and friends. The kids love this annual event, but to make it a success we need volunteers like you to help keep our shop running smoothly. You’ll work the cash registers and assist our students with purchasing items from their shopping lists. Thank you to anyone who is able to contribute their time!
