Our Elementary Spring Concert is just one week away! The concert will be held at 6:30PM on Monday, May 1st. Students should dress in nice clothes (dresses, skirts, nice shirts, nice pants, or nice jeans with no holes). Students involved in band will need to report to the band room by 6:25PM. Elementary Students will need to report to their classrooms no more than 10 minutes before their performance. The art of Elementary students will also be displayed in the North gym and in the lunchroom.
Please note: doors will open at 6:15. We ask that you be respectful of this time. This allows staff to eat and get their own children ready for the concert. We appreciate your understanding.
