Congratulations to each and every child who tried out for the Wizard of Oz tonight. Each one should be extremely proud of their accomplishment! It takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there for a role and each child did EXTREMELY well! Parents will be notified when their child needs to next come to the school for their part in the play, whether for a speaking role, munchkin role and behind the scenes role. Great Job Everyone!
