Message from Mr. Wehr:

This year the 5th grade musical is entitled ONCE ON A HOUSETOP. In this international holiday celebration you’ll join a group of chimney sweeps as they sing across the rooftops of the city and discover all the different ways people celebrate the winter holidays. The 5th grade students playing the part of chimney sweeps should wear all black or dark blue for the performances Thursday 11/30/2017 (8:15-8:45am, 9:00-930am & 6:30-7:00pm) in the cafeteria. Those students who are stage managers and light crew should also wear all dark colors. The rest of the 5th grade students should wear something festive for the winter holidays (La Posada, Hanukkah, Christmas and Kwanzaa). Please remember all students will need their uniforms after the morning performances.
