Good evening PR family!
This is the last week of school for quarter 3! Spring Break is right around the corner- (March 17th – 21st). Students will return to school on Monday, March 24th to begin quarter 4.
Join us on Thursday, March 13th at 5:30 p.m. for an original production of The Job Fair presented by the 2nd grade Drama Team. You won’t want to miss the crew of applicants who want to fill the new positions at Charlestown Elementary School next year. Our cast of zany characters are determined to get hired as slide attendants, greeters, car line cheerleaders, tooth fairies and more. The Talent Show featuring a host of creative K-2 students will begin after the play. Doors open at 5 p.m.
Student Council will be providing light concessions for the event. It will be a lot of fun! We can’t wait to see you there.
