We actually began our celebration yesterday with an assembly of student skits, songs, and presentations. My appreciation goes to all of the teachers and students for their preparations for this great assembly.

Today we continued with a day full of experiences planned under the leadership of parent volunteers, Beth Intoccia and Ann Dyer. Beth and Ann scheduled presenters and organized volunteers so that we could maximize the learning opportunities for our students. Thank you to all parent volunteers, presenters, and staff members for creating and supporting such a special day for our students!
