The 6th grade class, under the direction of Mrs. Monn, did something a little different this year by trading in the musical for a live comedy stage drama. Mrs. Monn thoughtfully casted each role, and Mrs. Smedley supplied the piano accompaniment. It was a wonderfully entertaining performance. Students in other grades each got on stage to sing the Christmas carols–something we parents and grandparents look forward to every year. Great job kids!
