Last night's Holiday Concert was special. Our students filled the stage with festive cheer as they shared the songs they had worked so hard to prepare. Thank you to our families, friends, and community members who gathered to support these wonderful students, making the night even more memorable. A huge shout-out to Mrs. Gettel, who worked tirelessly to help our students prepare for this special night. A big thank you to all our staff who played a role in making this night successful!
Good Afternoon Trojan Families,
Our annual Holiday Music Program is tonight! Join us from 6:00pm-7:00pm to watch your child perform as a chorus in the holiday program! The theme is "Holiday Parade" so please dress your student in holiday wear. Students must arrive no earlier than 5:30pm. We ask that all students be seated with their parents until their performance time and return to their seats after they come off the stage. Please remind your children that during the performance, they will not be allowed in the auxillary gym to play or cause any disruptions to the performance. We appreciate your cooperation in showing respect for all our wonderful performers.
For any questions you may contact me at jomontoya@southconejos.com.
Come out, show your support, and cheer on our student-athletes. Go Trojans!

Check it out and get ready to cheer on our Trojans!
