A Heartfelt Thank You
Thank you for joining us to celebrate our talented students tonight. We are grateful for the support of our Administration—Ms. Clark, Mr. Brown, and Ms. Heffner—as well as Ms. Boersma for helping secure our concert music, and Mr. Callihan and our custodial team for keeping our school clean and running smoothly.
🎶A special thank you to Judge Faison, whose generous donation made it possible for us to purchase the music for A Holly Jolly Christmas and Gonna Take You on a Sleigh Ride.
🎼Thank you to everyone who participated in our fundraiser, helping us obtain the music, materials, and equipment needed for this performance.
And to our parents—thank you for sharing your children with us and for supporting the Trask arts program. Your encouragement helps our students grow as musicians and as young people learning teamwork, dedication, and confidence.
