Spring "Rock N Roll" Dance Party!

Our Spring Dance Party will be held this FRIDAY, March 21, 2014 from 6:30pm-8:30pm.  We are very excited that our very own Mr Mendez will be spinning the hits. The dance party is open to all students, parents and friends.  Admission at the door is $10 per person.  Students in kindergarten to 3rd grade will require an adult to accompany them at the party. The theme of the party is "Rock N Roll" and we encourage everyone to dress up.

We will be selling snacks and drinks at the party. This is a fundraising event, all sales support our school programs, so come in and celebrate with us and help support the school.

Thank you.
