A Note From Mrs. Simpson our PAC teacher
4th Grade Parents: The 4th Grade Play "Rock and Roll Forever" is quickly approaching! Performances are April 17th at 8am for parents and April 18th at 7:45am for school wide performance. If you can not make it April 17th, you are more than welcome to come April 18th, you will just have to stand on the sides or in the back since our student body will be in the gym as well.
Things to note:
* All students have their speaking parts, dances and tech crew has been assigned. EVERY student is participating in some part of the play!
* I am looking for about 3-5 parents to help with Thriller make-up on April 17 and 18th at 7:20am. It will be for about 13 boys and needs to be done by 7:45-8 depending on the day!
* There will be a work day next Friday March 15th (I know first day of break, but if you happen to be around...) from 12:30-3:30pm for Poodle Skirt making, tulle skirt making and maybe tie dying.... If you have a sewing machine or can help cut fabric, I would LOVE to meet you and have some fun getting costumes ready for your kiddos! Please let me know if you can make it so I know how much to have ready for everyone :-)
* All scripts, dances and songs are posted in Google Classroom for students to practice!
Thank you for your support!
