Arts and Athletics Enrichment Package

We are very excited to provide our students with arts and athletic enrichment opportunities this school year.  All students will enjoy several performances that will come to the school for a nominal fee.  These performances and activities are carefully chosen to support our curriculum.  They include engaging motivational speakers, musical performances and hands-on skilled-based workshops.  

This is a cost effective opportunity for our students to participate in professional productions at our school at a reduced cost.  Thanks to group rate discounts and sponsorship by the school and school council, this comes to $25.00 per student for the year which is less than $3 per event.  We thank School Council for allocating funds to specifically sponsor the Internet Safety Presentation by Paul Davis who will also be doing a presentation for parents on December 3rd.
