Weekly Assemblies

All School Assembly
Tuesday Mornings
8:45 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.
Aurora Auditorium

Each week on Tuesday mornings we come together as a whole community to sing and share. We’d love you to join for our all school assembly and get to know the community. Please let Lisa know when you’d like to come.

Classroom Plays

Each year, for the culmination of their studies our kindergarten and 1st grade actors share singing, dancing, and a great story that you and your child are sure to enjoy. Creating the play provides an exciting learning opportunity for our students, in which they practice their collaboration skills. This short play (approximately 30 minutes) is a wonderful opportunity for incoming K/1 students and their parents to see what lies ahead for them for next year.
