Recording Secretary's 2-Cents Worth
A big thank you for the efforts of all at the school concert on January 10. The choir(s), band, and jazz band performances were wonderful. The jazz band's tribute to the late James Brown received a big nod-of-approval from all of us parents who remembered his music so well.
