3rd Grade Holiday Program

This is always one of my favorite days of the school year as it is filled with holiday songs and crafts and snacks in the girls' classrooms. Unfortunately this year we only had one performance to watch and Mrs. Siptroth was doing a class party that didn't include the parents:( Matt and I were only at the school for about 1/2 an hour to see the 3rd grade performers. Lorien, Kaylee and Allison in their winter wear
Allison's class was up on the stage and we were lucky enough to get front row seats!
The classes sang their hearts out to Feliz Navidad and Frosty the Snowman, along with a few less familiar songs and each class recited a poem. Allison's class taught us about Emperor Penguins.
Unfortunately there weren't any holiday festivities at the middle school so that was it for the day. The girls are both excited for the 2 week break from school. Taylor finished her finals yesterday and I couldn't be more proud of her effort and her grades. A 95% in Social Studies was her lowest grade and she finished the semester with a 4.0 GPA! She was sad to be done with Home Ec, but is looking forward to starting Drama when school resumes January 4th...
