Come one, come all! Pilot Point School presents “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”! Last night was our school's annual winter performance. We did a reader’s theatre and the kids had practiced for two and a half weeks leading up to the big night. They were so excited to show off for their families, and they did great! Some of the kids dressed up as “Whos” while others got more dressed up for the occasion. After the big show, we had a dessert potluck and there were so many cookies and treats from the community (I thought I was going to be sick afterwards from all the sugar). It never ceases to surprise me how much the community supports the students. We might not see them at all during the week, but when we have events that the kids are proud of, they always show up.
Not only did the community show up, but Santa made a surprise visit as well! Members from the Town Office and Village Council donate money to buy the kids items from their wish lists. The kids have been talking about their presents for the past few weeks, and they were so excited when Santa brought them the presents they wanted. We had a nerf gun war taking place in the gym last night as many of the boys had asked for them. I am going to miss these gatherings, but it was such a fun night to see the community come together one last time!
