Talent Show Re-Cap!

A big shout out to all of Fort River's talented and brave students for entertaining us on Friday evening! There was such a wide variety of acts -- from push-ups with knock knock jokes to martial arts to vocals/instruments to dance and gymnastics! Fort River definitely is talented!!

The 5th and 6th grades also would like to thank you for getting them closer to their Field Trip fundraising goals.

We'd also like to throw out an enormous THANK YOU to organizer extraordinaire, Shilpa Cunniffe, for making this event happen. Additional thanks to Fort River alum, Meena Cunniffe, and to parents Anne Martineau, Artie McCollum and Lisa Solowiej.
