The JSHS band shared their musical talents with the younger students at George Ross Mackenzie Elementary school on Friday, November 21st. This was a wonderful opportunity for the younger students to experience a live musical performance, and to see the exciting possibilities that participation in school band offers. The performance was a great way to foster community and inspire future musicians within the district! Great job by all band members!

Our GRM students have whipped up a feast full of creativity! PreK, 1st, and 2nd graders filled the rooms with festive decorations, Kindergarten crafted colorful placemats, and 3rd grade rolled silverware like pros. 4th graders made beautiful jar centerpieces, 5th graders designed amazing kraft-paper table runners, and 6th graders topped it all off with delicious apple crisp. From turkey and corn to mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, and apple crisp—our feast is extra special thanks to our talented students and the Leader in Me Cultural team for organizing it all!
