Sneak peek at the presentation our Juniors will be seeing on Monday - What a great opportunity for our Juniors to learn about American History from first person accounts!

Great experience for our student singers as the Friday Night Grand Theater Headliner Ron Artis II took time out of his day to work with our students!  In this picture he was playing a melody and our students began singing whatever came to them.  My biggest takeaway - our students are super talented!
