Wrapping Up November..
Congratulations to 4th grader, Duncan Kenney-Benson and 5th grader, Colin Ferrentino for winning the Spelling Bee this year! Our 4th grade runner-up was Maddie Kelso.

We are looking forward to the holiday performances. The Winter Choir Concert will be held on December 7 at 6:30 pm.
