Driver Families,
You are invited to attend the Driver Christmas Walk next Monday evening, December 18th! This takes place in the commons during the Band and Choir winter programs.
While your student is not performing you can visit the various stations with your family and take part in some fun (and free!) Christmas crafts/activities. Hope to see you there!
(If your Driver student is not in band or choir you are still welcome to attend!)
