WOW! We have had 2 wonderful Spring Performances with our 3rd graders and Honors Chorus students. Our students put in so much hard work and it really showed on stage. Thank you to all of our friends and families for joining us to see them perform, to our staff who helped make the performances a success, and to Mrs. Bailey for leading our students in such beautiful songs!
