Alpine Elementary School Play-Robin Hood
We had a great turnout for school play registration before the Christmas Break. We apologize that it was such short notice for signups. The good thing is, we still have openings for students to sign up! For those who couldn’t make it on Friday, I have attached the information and registration papers. All you need to do to register is to bring in the papers, or we have them in the office, along with your registration fee and you can be in the school play in January. Most everyone can remember the play from last year. It was awesome and a great experience for all those that were involved. We also would love to get some sponsors for our play. If you, or your business might be interested in this opportunity, you can respond to this email and I can get you more information.
