Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are excited to announce that our elementary music program has been rescheduled for December 18th, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. at the Rex Pyles Arena (AB Gym). Doors will open at 5:00 p.m. and all students need to arrive at the gym no later than 5:30 p.m. so we can prepare for the performance. Students are encouraged to wear their Christmas pajamas for the program.

Additionally, 2nd Grade students will need to bring a pair of sunglasses to wear for their song if possible.
We look forward to celebrating the season with you and showcasing the hard work and talent of our students. Thank you for your support!
