Variety Show Highlights
Thank you to all of the PTA Volunteers who led the efforts for a fantastic Variety Show, especially organizers Sarah Wilson-Brown and Blue Chevigny! There were almost 40 acts featuring a wide range of bulldog talent – from singing and dancing, to stand up comedy and magic, to speed solving Rubik's cubes and even blowing a balloon by nostril! The show closed with an epic DJ-led neon dance party. Congrats to all the performers!
