What a way to end a series! 🎉🎉🎉
This past Sunday we had back to back performances and enjoyed 2 hours of talented singing and music from these students!
The PSHS Choir was up first, followed by the Edison Middle School Band. Both groups were amazing and well worth the wait, considering the snow made us postpone their original dates.
A huge thank you to our wonderful sponsors, IDATP and PDJ Accounting Services and the Grand Central Mall. We are grateful for your support! ... See MoreSee Less
