Reminder for those going into 6th grade!!

We are so incredibly bummed about the technical difficulties we experienced earlier today for our Spring Program. Our students were SO excited to perform for you today and the rehearsals have gone so smoothly. Our technology team quickly came together to troubleshoot and believe we fixed and ready to go again tonight!

Spring program performances:

• Thursday (tonight) @ 6:30 pm. Door 18 opens at 6:10 pm. Students will go directly to their classrooms.
• Friday (tomorrow) @ 2:15 pm. Door 18 opens at 2:00. You may sign out siblings to go home with you at the end of the day, like we usually do on program days.

We appreciate your patience and understanding. It is so incredibly difficult to work so hard and so long, only to be postponed. Please give your child a pep talk and have them ready to try again tonight and tomorrow!!
