Attention all third-grade performers, chorus members, and stage crew! Please read this important announcement carefully so you know where to go and what to do for our next rehearsal.

Our after-school rehearsal for "The Great Forest Mystery" on Thursday, April 14, cannot take place on the auditorium stage as originally planned. The auditorium floor is being waxed this week, and the area will be completely closed to students. Because of this maintenance work, our practice session has been officially moved to the primary gymnasium.

Even though our location is different, the schedule remains the same. Rehearsal will begin promptly at 3:30 p.m. and will conclude at 4:45 p.m. When the final dismissal bell rings at 3:15 p.m., please do not walk toward the auditorium hallway. Instead, report directly to your homeroom teacher to check in for after-school attendance. Once your attendance is taken, line up quietly in the hallway outside Room 204. Mrs. Bennett and Mr. Diaz will meet everyone there and walk our entire group down to the gymnasium together.
