We are excited to share the wonderful success of our recent Character Ambassador Assembly, where we celebrated our 3rd through 5th grade students who showed the important values of Respect in November and Self-Control in December.

Classes shared festive selections including “Jingle Bell Rock,” “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town,” and “Run Run Rudolph,” with students also serving as speakers to introduce each performance.

A variety of acts were featured including rock bands, instrumentalists, vocalists, dancers, poets and actors. Students chose and prepared their own creative performances and showcased their talents.

From the orchestra’s warm, expressive melodies to the band’s energetic rhythms and the chorus’s joyful harmonies, each ensemble delivered a performance to remember.

The full day event included IBM mentors, parents, and over 150 students, and activities were centered around careers, community and relationship buil
