Our talented 5th and 6th graders — with help from our amazing 7th and 8th grade crew — are busy bringing this magical world to the stage! 🎩🐇❤️
From designing and building with jigsaws and hot knives 🔥🪚 to painting vibrant backdrops and props 🎨, students are learning hands-on skills to create a truly wonder-filled production. 🌈
We can’t wait to see all their hard work come together — it’s sure to be a performance straight out of Wonderland! 🌹♠️♣️♦️
