theme for the spring program is “Heroes and
Friends.” Students should dress up a little more than a
regular school day, which means no t-shirts with writing or
pictures, no sweat pants/running pants, and no shorts.
Girls can wear capris, gauchos, etc… The doors will open at
6:30 pm. Students are asked to report by 6:45 pm to their
assigned classes. The first two rows of seating on the gym
floor is reserved for the elderly and handicapped.
