3rd Grade Sure Did Peas....we mean Please!

Congrats to 3rd Grade for putting on an awesome music program to end the year!! They sang, they danced, they had a food fight, and most of all had a great time while doing it :) 3rd Grade successfully put on The Principal and the Pea, which puts a new twist on the classic story of The Princess and the Pea. All we have left to say is, good luck with the Brussels sprouts!
