Chapel Families-
Students in grades K-5 have been hard at work preparing for our Winter Concert where they will be performing John Jacob’s musical “Star Bucks”. The CDES Winter Concert is TONIGHT, December 9th at 6:00pm at the Easton High School Auditorium. Students should report no earlier than 5:30pm when the doors open. Students should wear their holiday best.
When you arrive, please take your students’ belongings to your seats. Students should find their classroom teacher and will sit with them. Please encourage your child to use the bathroom before handing them off to their teacher. K-2 students and the “Star Bucks” cast will be starting on stage, grades 3-5 students will be sitting in the audience with their class until it is their time to perform.
At the end of the performance to ensure safety, 3-5 students will be dismissed in front of the stage to a parent (released by teacher), while K-2 will remain in their seats until a parent signs them up (please confirm with teacher).
Looking forward to this night of festive fun and a special thank you to Mrs. Mandy Leffler for all her hard work in getting our students ready!
