What a great evening of theater last Tuesday. The Drama Class students presented two comical shorts and we all had fun! Be a part of the fun. Join the Drama Booster Club for our last meeting of the year, this Wednesday, 5/27 in the Wildcat Room (Administration Building under the Library) at 7:00pm. We're looking forward to another great year next year and can always use some more able bodied volunteers to keep everything running smoothly. We can use both Students and Parents!
