Attention Parents –
Our Christmas program is right around the corner. We will celebrate the season together on Thursday evening, December 4th for a 7:00 p.m program. Students should plan to arrive by 6:40 to meet home room teachers in the undercroft of the church. Dress is nice, church-type clothing in CHRISTMAS COLORS –any jewel tones you see in Christmas lights are great. Ladies – dresses or skirts and tops/sweaters, slacks outfits, anything festive and Gentlemen – slacks and a Christmas colored sweater or shirt. Our final joint rehearsals will be in the church on Tuesday, December 2nd and Wednesday, December 3rd from 8:45-11:00. Please avoid pulling students out during these rehearsals if at all possible. We have a very limited schedule to work with all three grade levels and want to have the students feel very prepared!
Happy Holidays!
