Holiday Recital Recap
On the evening of December 21st, over 80 of our students performed in three recital sessions at the historic Greenfield Hill Congregational Church. What a beautiful evening of music! The audience was treated to wonderful renditions of holiday classics among other favorites. Thank you to everyone who participated and attended that evening.

Daniel Barden From the WWDD website:

This family endorsed effort pays tribute to Daniel's life and honors his memory with the goal of inspiring others to share his kindness, compassion, selflessness, gratitude and appreciation of life."
This fundraiser is hosted by FSM student Amber Schaper, a friend of Daniel's, and will feature a raffle, bake sale, and live music.
Tickets are available for purchase at FSM (see the front desk) or at the concert. Ticket price: $20 suggested donation or $10 for children under $13.
