PCS Holiday Program
Dear students, parents, and friends of PCS,
This year our holiday program will be another play. 6th grade students are the actors, and every class has a song during the play.
The theme for this year’s play is Santa and his workshop, specifically the cookie department. Like last year we hope everyone can come in costume. Some ideas are reindeer, Santa, elves, snowman, tree, wreath, gift, anything imaginative concerning Santa. If you need help, please ask any of us. We will be happy to assist.
The program is on December 20, 6pm.
I’m looking forward to a delightful production!
Peace,
Mrs. Hanna
