Florence Roche Elementary School

December 13, 2024

Dear Florence Roche Families,

We had a very successful PTA Winter Fair last weekend.  A big thank you to Jennifer Moore for coordinating this event and the many volunteers who helped make it so successful.  The student chorus performances were the highlight of the day.  Thank you to Mr. Wiesner and the staff members in attendance who supported the students throughout the performances.   

Our students were treated to a performance by the high school band this week as part of their annual holiday concert tour.  These talented musicians took to the stage in our cafeteria for their show.  It was great to see this space used for a stage performance with an audience full of students.  They sounded great and everyone enjoyed it.  Next week, the high school chorus will be here to perform their holiday show for us.

The student council has planned a Spirit Day’s week to lead us into the holiday break.  We have a fun theme planned for each day next week.  I look forward to seeing the students and staff showing their school spirit!
