Dear Parents,

I would like to thank everyone who made our talent show such a success!  Students and staff alike had such a wonderful time entertaining the audience and each other. The school spirit and sense of community were over the top! Congratulations to all of our performers and to Ms. Yvonne and the rest of the staff for a job well done!

Have a super week!

Ms.  Moreau
