With schools back from the holiday break, we finally get to see some of the festivities held to recognize the season. This Christmas spirit was in full swing last month at St. Joseph School. After months of preparing for their moment in the spotlight, the children demonstrated that the true joy of Christmas is best seen through a child’s eyes. In keeping with tradition, the nursery and pre-kindergarten classes sang carols for friends and family. The first grade presented the Nativity and the second grade acted as an enthusiastic choir for the critically-acclaimed Third Grade production of Humbug. The band performed Christmas favorites, old and new, at the annual Christmas concert. Finally, in a special nighttime presentation for the community, the seventh and eighth grade presented their Nativity. The months of practice were evident; all the students should be proud of their contribution as they spread Christmas cheer throughout their school community. A special thanks to our music teacher, Mrs. Kelly, for her tireless effort in supporting these concerts and plays.
