This day we will be releasing our students at 11: 45 a.m. so our teachers and music department can transport all the necessary instruments and do the appropriate set up for the event.

Performances and Parent Collaboration – Parents are asked to cooperate with our Song Fest in making sure their students are dressed properly for their presentations, and making sure the students are at the venue no later that 5:30 p.m. Please note the descriptions below. If any parent has a question, please contact your homeroom teacher.

 Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos (NPH) is an international organization that takes in abandoned and orphaned children, providing a home and education.

 Here in Honduras, the NPH organization provides for over 500 children in at large ranch near La Venta and home in Tegucigalpa for severely handicapped children.

 While many children at the ranch have aunts, uncles, or grandparents that come to visit them and can provide some Christmas gifts, some children at a ranch have no family to visit.

 It is these children, whom we would like 

to provide for this Christmas.  In the main office, a NPH Giving Tree will be set up. If you wish to participate, choose a paper tree that has a child’s information about his/her size for shoes and socks. Purchase the new items and return them to Mrs. Agurcia’s Room (Rm. 7) by Wednesday, December 7th,unwrapped, with the tree tag taped to it. Thank you for giving this Christmas!
