The students and staff have had a very busy past couple of weeks, and are in need of a well deserved break. My hat is off to our amazing staff at Pinewood for all the hard work and time that went into organizing, practicing, decorating and perfecting the Operetta, “The Big Chill”. We are hoping that parents, grandparents, caregivers, family friends, etc., will be able to attend one of our two showings. On behalf of the staff, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
