Let The Play Begin

After a year of anticipation, the sixth grade teachers finally unveiled this year’s play choice to the Sixth Grade Saints.  Upon learning that they would be performing Twinderella: The Musical, the students were filled with mixed emotions, but once students began to read through the play, they all shared the same feeling- excitement.  The students…
