After much anticipation, the video of “Finding Nemo Jr,” our school musical, was released, and our cast was able to celebrate with a viewing party, hosted by Music Teacher/Vocal Director Mrs. Jackie Davis, in the Music Room. There was food, photos at a “Selfie Spot” with props from the show, and a lot of fun, while the cast watched the professionally produced performance video. Heartfelt thanks to the following parents and volunteers who helped make this year’s cast party a wonderful event:

Mrs. Farmer, Mrs. Knuutila, Mrs. Costello, Mrs. Queeno, Mr. Davis and costume designer Mrs. Zimmerman and our director/choreographer Maddy Long and her video production crew at the Palace Theater. Thanks also to all the cast members who were able to celebrate the show together.
