On the Ridge
And the Band Played On
Congratulations to our talented instrumental music students on their concert last week. Our strings ensemble, guitar ensemble and band students showcased their talents for our 6th grade students during the day and again for friends and family in the evening. It was a wonderful event and we were all impressed at their hard work and dedication. A special thank you to Mr. Williams and to the Band Boosters.

Underground Spirit Day: Favorite Book
To commemorate Read Across America Week, our staff did another fun underground spirit day in which we carried around our favorite book. So staff got even more into the fun by dressing as a character in their favorite book as well.
